One of the key benefits to joining USCTI is taking full advantage of the two Institute meetings each year, in the Spring and in the Fall. During these meetings, senior executives from the cutting tool industry’s leading companies come together to share ideas and valuable information.

During these meetings guest speakers provide information on relevant and timely topics, discuss business challenges and brainstorm solutions, ample networking and social opportunities, and the program offers insights into the cutting tool industry.

Other opportunities for interfacing with fellow members include the World Cutting Tool Conference, held every three years. These meetings include panel discussions and presentations covering timely business issues such as machining trends, market forecasting, trademarks and patents, the internet, e-commerce, and environmental regulations.
