Grotnes Heads to IMTS 2026 in Chicago

Grotnes Booth

This September, Grotnes will be in Chicago for IMTS, The International Manufacturing Technology Show, one of the largest manufacturing technology events in the world. From Sept. 14–19, industry leaders from across the globe will gather at McCormick Place to explore equipment, processes and technologies shaping the future of manufacturing, and Grotnes is proud to be part of that conversation.

You can find Grotnes at East Building, Level 3, Booth 134660, where our team will be available to talk through today’s production challenges and how our metalformig machines can help manufacturers meet them head-on.

Keeping Pace with Manufacturing Progress

IMTS has long been a destination for manufacturers looking to evaluate new technology, compare equipment options and connect directly with the people behind the machines.

We, of course, get to see what’s new from our peers and discuss what’s working day to day on production floors for our customers and others.

We ground those conversations in more than a century of engineering experience and a long history in metalforming. Today, the Grotnes team continues to help customers across aerospace, automotive and general industrial markets improve the way they form, shape and produce critical components.

Equipment Conversations Focused on Your Production Needs

Visitors to the Grotnes booth can expect talk centered on metalforming equipment and production-ready solutions for modern manufacturing environments. Our technology portfolio includes shrinking, expanding, roll forming and spinning, each playing an important role in helping manufacturers meet performance, repeatability and output goals across a wide range of applications.

For companies evaluating next steps in their production strategy, IMTS is a great place to begin or continue the conversation.

Some attendees arrive with a clear application in mind. Others are exploring how to improve process flow, reduce inefficiencies or align future equipment decisions with broader operational goals. In any case, Grotnes will be ready to talk through where the metalforming market is headed and how manufacturers can prepare for what’s next.

A Timely Opportunity to Connect with Grotnes

This year’s event comes at an especially meaningful time as we continue advancing our pre-engineered (configure to order) lineup initiative. That direction reflects a growing emphasis on bringing manufacturers equipment options that are well suited for streamlined decision-making, dependable performance and an easier part replacement process.

For IMTS attendees, that means connecting with a team that understands both the technical side of metalforming and the common demands manufacturers face when planning capital equipment investments. Our conversations at the booth can help identify where a project stands today, what production demands are driving the need and what kind of path forward makes the most sense.

See You in Chicago
