Top 10 Horizontal CNC Lathe Manufacturers in China

The 19th China International Machine Tool Exhibition (CIMT2025) concluded at the Capital International Exhibition Centre. This year’s exhibition featured a wide array of products, showcasing a distinct ‘evolutionary’ trend compared to the previous edition. If machine tools are viewed as a species, it is evident from the exhibits at this year’s event that manufacturers are actively adapting to environmental changes, with the industry as a whole moving towards mid-to-high-end segments. Compared to the previous edition, significant advancements have been made in terms of functionality, performance, reliability, and environmental sustainability. Although Chinese CNC lathe manufacturers are increasingly moving towards 5-axis machines, horizontal CNC lathes (primarily referring to horizontal CNC lathes) remain one of the most widely applied and technically mature categories in the history of China’s machine tool development. Youka-CNC has comprehensively selected the top 10 manufacturers in China’s horizontal CNC lathe sector based on market share, technological expertise, product line specialisation, and industry reputation.

This list provides a solid foundation for understanding the major manufacturers in the field of horizontal CNC lathes in China. When making actual purchasing decisions, it is recommended to conduct more in-depth research and comparisons based on specific needs.
