The JMTBA announced June 2026 final machine tool orders at 3:00 pm on 29 July.

Machine tool orders in June 2026 reached a record high, confirming that the demand

environment surrounding machine tools and factory automation (FA) is very strong, with

orders expanding across a wide range of countries, regions, and industries. By industry,

strength in orders for electrical/precision equipment, including AI- and semiconductor-

related demand, continued, while orders for aerospace/shipbuilding/transportation

machinery also remained at high levels. In addition, automotive orders are on a recovery

trend, which is positive as it indicates a broadening of the demand growth. These trends

are consistent with Keyence’s Q1 FY3/27 results announced on 28 July. The company’s

Q1 results showed sales growth across regions and industries, indicating that a recovery

in capex is progressing globally. Although geopolitical risks remain an uncertainty, global

capex is in a recovery phase. In addition to AI- and semiconductor-related demand,

orders for aerospace, automotives and general industry are expanding, and we expect

solid machine tool orders to continue for the time being.
