(AMT: McLean, VA) -- September U.S. manufacturing technology orders totaled $606.56 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 22.9 percent from August and up 51.9 percent when compared with the total of $399.32 million reported for September 2010. With a year-to-date total of $4.1 billion, 2011 is up 91.9 percent compared with 2010.
