Read the April issue of ISMR

Don’t miss the April 2022 issue of International Sheet Metal Review (ISMR) on https://joom.ag/7bQd

In this issue of ISMR, we examine growth patterns, new market analysis and key drivers in global domestic appliance and smart home markets (page 24). We also highlight the benefits of additive manufacturing (page 18) and unveil a newly launched innovative laser welding process (laser MPNG) which is designed to be faster and gentler on materials, whilst cutting energy usage and costs.

International Women’s Day on 8 March 2022, and its theme “Break the Bias”, was a call to imagine a gender-equal world – and to take action to realize that vision. We outline practical strategies for manufacturers to diversify their workforces and close the urgent skills gap on page 48.

We preview two important trade shows in the manufacturing calendar; ITM Industry Europe in Poland (page 28) and LAMIERA in Italy (page 40). We also analyse growth forecasts, industrial trends and machine tool projections for the Polish economy (page 36). Coil processing, press brakes and folders also feature in this issue.

We encourage you to send us your machine process or technology video links for the ISMR website and ISMR’s new YouTube channel. You can also follow ISMR’s new LinkedIn page (ISMR Magazine) or catch up with us on Twitter @ismrmagazine
