MEBANE, N.C., May 18, 2026 — Leading cutting tool specialist and manufacturing solutions provider Sandvik Coromant will highlight its comprehensive approach to solving real-world challenges in machining, metalworking and production at the upcoming International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), Sept. 14–19 in Chicago.
Exhibiting at booth #338348 in South Hall, Level 3, Sandvik Coromant invites attendees to come with their toughest shop problems and leave with a solution. Visitors will have access to a deep roster of consultants ready to collaborate on specific manufacturing challenges, ranging from design and process planning to production logistics and machining. They can also receive expert support for topics on machine investment, tool selection, process evaluation, cutting strategies, CAM programming, verification and more.
“Gaining an edge in today’s fast-paced shop environment involves more than just the tools you use; it’s about how your entire process works together from beginning to end,” said Veronica Messersmith, Americas president for Sandvik Coromant. “At IMTS, we’re bringing together our full offer — tooling, digital solutions and expertise — into a collaborative space designed for problem-solving, with a focus on manufacturing wellness to help shops build more resilient, efficient operations across the entire value chain.”
Booth visitors can also explore the broad Sandvik Coromant offering through advanced digital experiences. Using an interactive 3D component simulation table, attendees can learn about machining a variety of components from industries such as aerospace, automotive and energy. Showcasing models like an aero engine casing and a fracking block, the platform displays the component, machine programming and setup tips, tooling selection and application videos for each stage of the machining process. In addition, visitors can get a firsthand look at the latest Sandvik Coromant milling, drilling and turning tools running in partner booths throughout the hall.
The company is also featuring an immersive virtual reality kiosk offering an exclusive tour of the Sandvik Coromant training center and production facility in Mebane, N.C. The interactive experience provides a behind-the-scenes look at how the company tests and applies its own tooling, technology and data-driven approach to achieve manufacturing excellence.
As a hub for learning and collaboration, the Sandvik Coromant booth also highlights Manufacturing Wellness, a concept that considers a holistic view of eight habits — from developing people to using technology and eliminating waste — to improve operations. Sandvik Coromant’s “yellow coat” specialists will provide Manufacturing Wellness assessments and scorecards to help visitors gauge their progress toward more efficient production.
