CIMT 2027 stand in Beijing: your turn-key stand builder

Industrie

International

Every two years, in odd-numbered years, CIMT brings together the Chinese and international machine tool industry in Beijing. Next edition: April 19 to 24, 2027, at the China International Exhibition Center (Shunyi). A CIMT stand positions your brand in front of one of the largest industrial markets in the world.

CIMT 2027: the Chinese showcase for machine tools

The exhibition covers the entire machining sector: machining centers, lathes, grinding, electrical discharge machining, forming, cutting tools, CNCs, metrology, and automation. Buyers from the automotive, aerospace, energy, and mold manufacturing sectors come to compare performances before investing. The 2025 edition gathered more than 2,400 exhibitors. For a foreign brand, it is the opportunity to meet distributors, decision-makers, and local partners in one week.

China International Exhibition Center (Shunyi)

The Shunyi venue, located in northeastern Beijing near the international airport, accommodates machines weighing several tons in its single-level halls. Plan ahead for handling, floor loads, electrical supply, and compressed air. Technical files must be approved in advance, and customs clearance planned several weeks beforehand.

Machine tool stand: our expertise

The stand organizes the layout around the machines in operation, provides safe zones for demonstrations, and offers a quiet space for case studies. Our approach to the industrial and construction stand is backed by thirty years of French manufacturing and our Hong Kong office. Discover also our custom-built stands.

Tips for exhibiting at CIMT

  • Book your space early: location and layout are decided as early as 2026.

  • Coordinate stand and machines: the arrival dates of heavy equipment dictate the design.

  • Prepare for customs clearance: temporary importation into China requires precise documents and a specialized freight forwarder.

  • Speak to Chinese buyers: bilingual materials, interpreters, and a closed negotiation area.
