Hurco’s Unique Expertise in Control Technology and Dedication to Product Development to Be on Display at IMTS

Hurco Companies, Inc. will highlight the benefits of the company’s relentless focus on control technology and product development at 2024 IMTS Booth #338319

Hurco Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: HURC), a leader in CNC machine and controls technology, is poised to make a significant impact at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) in Chicago next month. Being North America’s largest manufacturing technology exhibition, Hurco chose IMTS to unveil the results of its aggressive technology innovation and product development strategies. With an expanded 16,000-square-foot IMTS booth, Hurco will showcase how its unwavering focus on research and development is delivering cutting-edge technologies that drive productivity and profitability for customers worldwide.

Greg Volovic, President and CEO said, “Being at the forefront of technological innovation is in Hurco’s DNA. Our industry often underestimates the pivotal role of software and technology in modern manufacturing. At IMTS, every one of our CNC brands will showcase how we’ve pushed the boundaries of control technology. Our flagship Hurco brand will spotlight some of our new AI assistive technologies, including Hurco’s new ChatCNC™ help bot and AI feature recognition developments. Our Milltronics brand will debut new levels of precision, surface finish, and performance with a new vertically-integrated machine control system. The Takumi brand will introduce an entirely new graphical user-interface designed around the specific needs of the die and mold industry.”

IMTS attendees will also have the unique opportunity to engage with the latest concept designs of Hurco’s next-generation control, including the premiere of a sleek new ergonomic console with an interactive control pod, offering visitors a hands-on experience. The Milltronics brand will spotlight its new INSPIRE+ platform, including the INSPIRE control software.

Volovic added, “Milltronics’ recent expansion into a new Indianapolis facility – strategically located near Hurco’s global headquarters – has accelerated product development for the brand and led to breakthroughs in our new INSPIRE+ control and the first INSPIRE-controlled true 5-axis machining center.”

Beyond control technologies and product line expansions, Hurco’s presence at IMTS will extend across the entire venue, thanks to strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Universal Robots, Kawasaki Robotics, SolidCAM, and Air Turbine. Hurco Automation, powered by ProCobots, exemplifies the seamless integration between Hurco CNC machines and ProCobots collaborative robotic systems, eliminating tedious programming and enabling flexible automation across multiple machines. Additionally, Hurco’s advanced control software now integrates effortlessly with industrial robot automation, highlighted by our recently announced collaboration with Kawasaki Robotics.

Hurco is ready to redefine the future of manufacturing technology at IMTS. With innovation and excellence at its core, Hurco invites you to witness the dawn of a new era in manufacturing, in which groundbreaking advancements set the stage for tomorrow’s industry leaders.

Volovic concluded, “Our vertical integration of the machine, control console, and software is a tangible competitive advantage, allowing us to swiftly deploy innovations, capitalize on emerging technologies, and respond to customer feedback. This comprehensive ownership over the technology and intellectual property embedded in our products enables rapid commercialization of advancements that directly benefit our customers. As the markets begin to recover, Hurco will be front and center, driving innovation and setting new industry standards for control technology and beyond.”
