Italian Index of machine tool orders showed a 49.4% upturn
In the fourth quarter 2021, the index of machine tool orders processed by the Economic Studies Department and Business Culture of Ucimu-Sistemi per produrre showed a 49.4% upturn versus the period October-December 2020. The absolute value of the index was 129.1 (base 100 in 2015). It is a record-breaking value that has never been registered in history before.

Barbara Colombo, president of UCIMU: “The collection of machine tool orders is satisfactory, but affected by the delays in the supplies of raw materials and components and by the exorbitant increase of costs”. © Ucimu
