About the event
Cutting Days is a trade fair organized by Dormer Pramet, with this year marking the sixth anniversary since the event was launched. Our production unit in Šumperk, Czech Republic, will welcome visitors from all over the world during the event.
This year we are expecting a record-breaking number of visitors and a packed program of activities, which is why Cutting Days 2017 has the motto EXPERIENCE MORE.
Cutting Days will be of significant interest to metalworking-based companies across the Czech Republic and neighbouring countries, as well as anyone with a connection to Dormer Pramet globally.
The biggest attraction at Cutting Days will be the official opening of a brand new training, development and research center – the EXPERIENCE CENTER. Also, visitors will be able to take the opportunity to visit a Czech Republic technical marvel: the pumped storage power plant Dlouhé Stráně.
