TOPIC OF THE CONFERENCE

Dear colleagues from academia and industry,

on November 20th-22th, 2024, the city of Trnava will host the first annual international scientific and professional conference called Cutting Tools 2024. The event will take place at the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology of the Slovak University of Technology, located in Trnava.

The aim of the conference is to connect people from industry with the academic and university environment to jointly discuss the latest challenges for the future. For this reason, we have decided to organize the conference in collaboration with MASAM, a manufacturer of cutting tools, and the MASAM R&D research and development company, in conjunction with the academic community of the STU MTF. The Cutting Tools conference serves as a unique venue where interesting solutions are brought together with opportunities for cooperation. It aspires to become a platform for sharing information on trends in cutting tools, their research, development, and practical applications in chip machining.

The event will feature plenary lectures, keynote speeches, workshops, and presentations by research and development centers and industrial partners active in this field. The conference will be opened with a speech by MASAM’s CEO, Milan Mandák, and the dean of the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology of STU in Trnava, Miloš Čambál.

Researchers, scientists, and PhD students if you are looking for new opportunities for collaboration within your project, Cutting Tools 2024 is the ideal opportunity to discover new research and business prospects. We will ensure that your contribution meets high standards of relevance. Contributions from the conference will be published in the MM Science Journal, which is indexed in citation databases such as Web of Science™, Scopus®, and EBSCO.

The conference will provide an excellent international platform for sharing knowledge and experience in the fields of engineering, education, and management with an interdisciplinary focus on solving current issues related to cutting tools.

We believe that the conference will enrich you not only professionally but also expand your vision in the following areas:

  • cutting tools and jigs
  • manufacturing technologies (machining, forming, welding),
  • additive manufacturing technologies,
  • advanced manufacturing technologies,
  • process diagnostics,
