TR Cutler Corroborates Summer 2017 Orders Continue to Outpace Last Year

U.S. Manufacturing Technology Orders (USMTO) continued to expand in July, up 23 percent from July 2016 order levels. The July rate of increase is a notable acceleration in growth relative to the 10 percent increase in June orders posted over the previous year. Future quotations into major orders with bundled add-ons such as special tooling and automation.

The contract machine shop sector, where companies typically buy one or two machines at a time, was one of the stronger markets in July, representing 41 percent of all the units ordered in July and 32 percent of the total July dollar value. The big surprise was a jump in defense orders from less than one percent of total orders to 4 percent in July – more than a 10-fold increase. Medical equipment and agricultural equipment sectors were up 10 percent and seven percent respectively.

The marketing research division of TR Cutler Inc. projects similar growth patterns on pending large projects through summer 2019.
