(AMT: McLean, VA) -- July 2011 U.S. manufacturing technology orders totaled $506.97 million, according to the American Machine Tool Distributors’ Association (AMTDA) and The Association For Manufacturing Technology (AMT). This total, as reported by companies participating in the U.S. Manufacturing Technology Orders (USMTO) program was up 7.3 percent from June and up 92.7 percent when compared with the total of $263.14 million reported for July 2010. With a year-to-date total of more than $2.9 billion, 2011 is up 102.9 percent compared with 2010.
