About Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS)

Presented by the Precision Machined Products Association and co-presented by Production Machining and Modern Machine Shop, PMTS gives you the opportunity to attend a show that’s been put together just for you – manufacturers of precision machined parts. For 3 days in April, all the vendors that you travel miles to see at other shows will be concentrated in one place - the Greater Columbus Convention Center.

In addition, PMTS offers classroom sessions and hands-on technical sessions on the show floor that will give you the chance to see machines up-close and in action.
