Muratec Hosts European Dealer Meeting in Japan – A Strategic Step Toward Future Growth

This past week, Murata Machinery Ltd, Machine Tools Division, welcomed dealers from across Europe to their headquarters in Inuyama, Japan, for the Muratec European Dealer Meeting—a key event focused on collaboration, innovation, and long-term strategy.

Among the attendees was Matsuura UK, the exclusive UK dealer for Muratec machine tools. Representing Matsuura, David Lowe joined fellow European partners to gain insights into upcoming product developments and emerging technologies from Muratec’s global R&D and manufacturing teams.

“What an amazing week at the Muratec European Dealer Meeting,” said David Lowe.
“It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with Muratec teams and fellow dealers across Europe. We had valuable discussions around upcoming products, automation technologies, and how we can better serve customers in a rapidly evolving market.”

Muratec, a division of Murata Machinery Ltd, is globally recognised for its high-performance turning centres, automation-ready solutions, and multi-tasking machines designed to meet the growing demands of modern manufacturing. Their commitment to innovation and customer-focused engineering was evident throughout the event, with live demos, technical briefings, and strategic planning sessions forming the core of the agenda.

“The hospitality and organisation by Muratec were exceptional,” added David.
“It’s clear they’re not only committed to developing advanced machine tools, but also to building strong relationships with their global partners.”

As the UK market continues to prioritise automation, reliability, and efficiency, events like this ensure that Matsuura is perfectly aligned with Muratec’s product roadmap and support strategies—allowing them to deliver the latest solutions directly to UK manufacturers.

This event marks another important step in strengthening dealer networks, aligning international strategies, and sharing knowledge that will shape the next phase of growth for Muratec and its partners.
