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

The pandemic and the resulting disruptions to supply chains and labour availability appear to have been the push that many needed to justify robotic investments, as we examine on page 18 of this issue. We also analyse growth patterns, trends and key drivers in global construction markets (page 22) and chart Italy’s path through the pandemic, as well as its latest economic and machine tool/ automation forecasts for manufacturers (page 38).

Read our report on the recent MACH 2022 exhibition in Birmingham, UK (page 36), as well as our preview of the forthcoming Wire and Tube show in Germany (page 44). We also highlight a selection of the latest new waterjet cutting systems, technologies and products for sheet metal manufacturers page 50). Surface finishing, tube forming and fibre laser cutting also come under the spotlight in this issue.

ISMR’s 2022 media kit, which includes a month-by-month editorial features list as well as new and improved promotional opportunities, is on http://bit.ly/3qCFBUN
