Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business John Bean Technologies Corporation and its majority-owned consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company,” “JBT,” “our,” “us,” or “we”) provide global technology solutions to high-value segments of the food and beverage and air transportation industries. We design, produce and service sophisticated products and systems for multi-national and regional customers through our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. We have manufacturing operations worldwide and are strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products and services to our customers. Basis of Presentation In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim periods, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) do not include all of the information and notes for complete financial statements as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). As such, the accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the JBT Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 , which provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business, properties, and other matters. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the interim results and trends in the interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period. Use of estimates Preparation of financial statements that follow U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Recently adopted accounting standards In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330) – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory . The core principle of the ASU is that entities that historically used the lower of cost or market in the subsequent measurement of inventory will instead be required to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The guidance will not change U.S. GAAP for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. This guidance became effective for us as of January 1, 2017 and there was no effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The new guidance was developed as part of the FASB’s simplification initiative. The core principle of the ASU requires income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, and eliminates the requirement to report excess tax benefits in additional paid-in capital (APIC pool). It also allows an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting, and allows an employer to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The new standard became effective for us as of January 1, 2017. During the first quarter 2017, 278,316 awards vested, and resulted in a $5.8 million tax benefit reported in earnings, and is classified as an operating activity within the condensed consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The elimination of the APIC pool affects the treasury stock method used to calculate weighted average shares outstanding; however, the impact was not material. We elected to change our policy surrounding forfeitures, and beginning January 2017 we no longer estimate the number of awards expected to be forfeited but rather account for them as they occur. We are required to implement this portion of the guidance using a modified retrospective approach, and as such have recorded a cumulative adjustment of $0.6 million in retained earnings as of January 1, 2017. We also amended our incentive compensation and stock plan to allow JBT to have the discretion to withhold up to the maximum statutory rates, on an individual tax basis. A liability was not established as the withholding limits do not exceed the maximum. Cash paid for tax withholdings are classified as financing activity on the condensed consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, consistent with prior years. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments and Restricted Cash . The new guidance is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The core principle of the ASU requires the classification of eight specific cash flow issues identified under ASC 230 to be presented as either financing, investing or operating, or some combination thereof, depending upon the nature of the issue. Entities are required to use a retrospective transition approach for all of the issues identified for each period presented. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business . The core principle of the ASU is to clarify the definition of a business to require certain transactions to be accounted for as business combinations versus an acquisition of assets. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new guidance will simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment. The core principle of the ASU is to remove the requirement to calculate an implied fair value to determine impairment (Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test) and allow instead for goodwill impairment to equal the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The Company early adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017, prior to our 2017 annual testing of goodwill impairment, to be performed as of October 31st. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (ASC 718) - Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments provide guidance as to how an entity should account for a change in the terms and conditions of its share-based payment awards. The core principle of the ASU is to provide clarity, and reduce the variation in applied practice, as well as, cost and complexity in accounting for a change in the terms and conditions in an entity's share-based payment awards. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted Beginning in 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), plus a number of related ASU’s designed to clarify and interpret Topic 606. The new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU requires companies to reevaluate when revenue is recorded based upon newly defined criteria, either at a point in time or over time as goods or services are delivered. The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates, and changes in those estimates. The new standard becomes effective for us as of January 1, 2018, with the option to early adopt the standard for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and allows for both retrospective and modified-retrospective methods of adoption. As previously disclosed, we will adopt Topic 606 on a modified-retrospective basis. In 2016, we completed our gap assessment and determined that approximately 30 - 40% of our total revenues will be subject to change dependent on the nature of the production process and contract terms. We believe that we will qualify for over time recognition for certain of our manufactured equipment as well as refurbishments. Under the new rules, revenue recognized for such projects in the future will result in an acceleration of revenue as compared to our current revenue recognition methodology of recognizing revenue at a point in time. We are continuing to quantify the impact of this change. We continue to execute our implementation plan and have developed new revenue accounting policies and processes; changed our internal controls over revenue recognition; created pro forma disclosures; and continue to implement system changes and enhancements. We will begin our transition evaluation for all contracts that will not be completed on January 1, 2018 in the fourth quarter of 2017. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The new standard will replace most existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU is the requirement for lessees to report a right to use asset and a lease payment obligation on the balance sheet but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to today’s accounting, and for lessors the guidance remains substantially similar to current U.S. GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. However, early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. We are in the process of evaluating the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory . The new guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for intercompany asset transfers. The core principle requires an entity to immediately recognize the tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted only at the beginning of an annual period for which no financial statements (interim or annual) have already been issued. The Company anticipates the adoption in the effective period and we are currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (ASC 715) - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Costs and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The new guidance will improve the presentation of pension cost by providing additional guidance on the presentation of net benefit cost in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization in assets. The core principle of the ASU is to provide more transparency in the presentation of these costs by requiring the service cost component to be reported in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The amendments require that the Consolidated Statements of Income impacts be applied retrospectively, while Balance Sheet changes should be applied prospectively. As such, upon adoption in 2018, the Company expects to revise operating income for fiscal year 2017 by $1.1 million , and report this income in non operating income. Operating income for the fiscal year 2016 will be revised by $2.3 million and operating income for 2015 will be revised by $0.6 million . There will be no impact to net income or to the Balance Sheet or Statement of Cash Flows. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company will adopt the newly issued ASU as of January 1, 2018. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The core of the principle is to simplify hedge accounting, as well as improve the financial reporting of hedging results, for both financial and commodity risks, in the financial statements and related disclosures. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after the issuance of the amendment, however, any adjustments should be made as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the interim period occurred. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	ACQUISITIONS During 2017 and 2016 the Company acquired six businesses for an aggregate consideration of $353.4 million , net of cash acquired. A summary of the acquisitions made during the period is as follows: Date Type Company/Product Line Location (Near) Segment July 31, 2017 Stock PLF International Ltd. Harwich (Sussex), England Food Tech Manufacturer of powder filling systems for global food and beverage, and nutraceutical markets headquartered in Harwich (Essex), England. July 3, 2017 Stock Aircraft Maintenance Support Services, Ltd. (AMSS) Cardiff, Wales AeroTech Manufacturer of military and commercial aviation equipment. February 24, 2017 Stock Avure Technologies, Inc. Middletown, OH FoodTech Manufacturer of high pressure processing (HPP) systems. HPP is a cold pasteurization technology that ensures food safety without heat or preservatives, maintaining fresh food characteristics such as flavor and nutritional value, while extending shelf life. November 1, 2016 Stock Tipper Tie Inc. Apex, NC FoodTech Manufacturer of engineered processing and packaging solutions, and related consumables to the food industry. October 14, 2016 Asset Cooling and Applied Technologies (C.A.T.) Russellville, AR FoodTech Manufacturer of value-added food solutions primarily for the poultry industry. February 17, 2016 Asset Novus X-Ray LLC Doylestown, PA FoodTech Manufacturer of modular X-Ray systems for the automated food inspection industry. Each acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of the net assets received has been recorded as goodwill. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill primarily relate to acquisition-driven anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancement synergies coupled with the assembled workforce acquired. The following presents the allocation of acquisition costs to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, based on their estimated values: PLF (1) Avure (1) Tipper Tie (1) C.A.T. (2) Other (3)(1) Total (In millions) Financial assets $ 20.1 $ 8.5 $ 28.4 $ 3.3 $ 6.9 $ 67.2 Inventories 1.0 14.4 17.2 16.4 2.5 51.5 Property, plant and equipment 2.3 4.5 17.0 2.9 2.6 29.3 Other intangible assets (4) 17.7 20.8 66.3 48.0 7.1 159.9 Deferred taxes (3.6 ) (8.5 ) (5.9 ) — (0.8 ) (18.8 ) Financial liabilities (5.6 ) (10.1 ) (21.1 ) (14.9 ) (4.0 ) (55.7 ) Total identifiable net assets $ 31.9 $ 29.6 $ 101.9 $ 55.7 $ 14.3 $ 233.4 Cash consideration paid $ 44.2 $ 58.9 $ 160.6 $ 72.7 $ 15.9 $ 352.3 Holdback payments due to seller 5.3 — — 11.7 2.7 19.7 Total consideration 49.5 58.9 160.6 84.4 18.6 372.0 Cash acquired 15.0 — 2.4 — 0.7 18.1 Net consideration $ 34.5 $ 58.9 $ 158.2 $ 84.4 $ 17.9 $ 353.9 Goodwill $ 17.6 $ 29.3 $ 58.7 $ 28.7 $ 4.3 $ 138.6 (1) The purchase accounting for these acquisitions is preliminary. For PLF and AMSS the valuation of certain working capital balances, intangibles, income tax balances and residual goodwill related to each is not complete. For Avure and Tipper Tie the income tax balances and residual goodwill is not complete. We are also currently assessing the amount of goodwill that we expect to be deductible for tax purposes. These amounts are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date). During the quarter ended September 30, 2017 we refined our estimates of deferred tax assets for Avure by ($1.8) million and deferred tax liabilities by $0.7 million . The impact of these adjustments was reflected as a decrease in goodwill of $1.1 million , and resulted in an immaterial impact to the consolidated statement of income. During the quarter ended June 30, 2017 we refined our other intangible asset estimates for Avure by $2.6 million , deferred taxes by ($0.7) million and inventory by ($0.7) million . The impact of these adjustments was reflected as a decrease in goodwill of $1.2 million , and resulted in an immaterial impact to the consolidated statement of income. All other measurement period adjustments in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 3017 were not material. (2) The amounts shown represent final allocation of the cash paid for these acquisitions. (3) Other balances include Novus and AMSS. Novus balances are the final allocation of the cash paid for this acquisition. AMSS is preliminary, refer to Note (1). (4) The acquired definite-lived intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from five to fourteen years. The tradename intangible assets for Avure, Tipper Tie, C.A.T. and PLF have been identified as indefinite-lived intangible asset and will be reviewed annually for impairment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , PLF, AMSS and Avure had revenue and earnings (losses) of, $3.0 million and ($0.2) million , $3.6 million and $0 million , and $22.5 million and ($1.7) million , respectively. Pro forma Financial Information (unaudited) In 2016, certain of JBT's acquisitions were material to JBT's overall results such that we are required under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, to present pro forma information.

Pro forma adjustments have been made to illustrate the incremental impact on earnings of interest costs on the borrowings to acquire the companies, amortization expense related to acquire intangible assets, depreciation expense related to the fair value of the acquired depreciable tangible assets and the related tax impact associated with the incremental interest costs and amortization and depreciation expense.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows: • Level 1 : Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company can assess at the measurement date. • Level 2 : Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. • Level 3 : Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: As of September 30, 2017 As of December 31, 2016 (In millions) Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Investments $ 12.3 $ 12.3 $ — $ — $ 11.9 $ 11.9 $ — $ — Derivatives 4.8 — 4.8 — 7.2 — 7.2 — Total assets $ 17.1 $ 12.3 $ 4.8 $ — $ 19.1 $ 11.9 $ 7.2 $ — Liabilities: Derivatives $ 2.6 $ — $ 2.6 $ — $ 5.0 $ — $ 5.0 $ — Contingent consideration 0.9 — — 0.9 0.8 — — 0.8 Total liabilities $ 3.5 $ — $ 2.6 $ 0.9 $ 5.8 $ — $ 5.0 $ 0.8 Investments represent securities held in a trust for the non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Investments are classified as trading securities and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that we have the ability to access. Investments are reported separately in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Investments include an unrealized gain of $0.4 million as of September 30, 2017 and unrealized gain of $0.6 million as of December 31, 2016 . We use the income approach to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change between the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency rate, multiplied by the contract notional values, and applying an appropriate discount rate as well as a factor of credit risk. The contingent consideration relates to the earnout provision recorded in conjunction with the acquisition completed in the first quarter of 2016. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, as well as financial instruments included in other current assets and other current liabilities, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities. The carrying values and the estimated fair values of our debt financial instruments are summarized in the table below: As of September 30, 2017 As of December 31, 2016 (In millions) Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Revolving credit facility, expires February 10, 2020 $ 247.8 $ 247.8 $ 342.1 $ 342.1 Term loan due February 10, 2020 150.0 150.0 150.0 150.0 Brazilian term loan due November 30, 2017 1.3 1.3 — — Brazilian loan due October 16, 2017 0.2 0.2 1.5 1.4 Foreign credit facilities 4.0 4.0 4.4 4.4 Other 1.1 1.1 1.2 1.2 There is no active or observable market for our fixed rate Brazilian loans. Therefore, the estimated fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current interest rates available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The estimates of the all-in interest rate for discounting the loans are based on a broker quote for loans with similar terms. We do not have a rate adjustment for risk profile changes, covenant issues or credit rating changes, therefore the broker quote is deemed to be the closest approximation of current market rates. The carrying values of the remaining borrowings approximate their fair values due to their variable interest rates.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments and Risk Management	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT Derivative Financial Instruments All derivatives are recorded as other assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss related to the derivatives are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the transaction affects earnings. We assess both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been, and will continue to be, highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. The impact of any ineffectiveness is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge are recognized in earnings. Foreign Exchange: We manufacture and sell products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, we are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, South America and Asia. Some of our sales and purchase contracts contain embedded derivatives due to the nature of doing business in certain jurisdictions, which we take into consideration as part of our risk management policy. The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales made in the normal course of business. We primarily utilize forward foreign exchange contracts with maturities of less than 2 years in managing this foreign exchange rate risk. We have not designated these forward foreign exchange contracts, which had a notional value at September 30, 2017 of $404.8 million , as hedges and therefore do not apply hedge accounting. The following table presents the fair value of foreign currency derivatives included within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets: As of September 30, 2017 As of December 31, 2016 (In millions) Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Other current assets / liabilities $ 4.3 $ 3.0 $ 7.2 $ 4.8 Other assets / liabilities 0.1 — — — Total $ 4.4 $ 3.0 $ 7.2 $ 4.8 A master netting arrangement allows counterparties to net settle amounts owed to each other as a result of separate offsetting derivative transactions. We enter into master netting arrangements with our counterparties when possible to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions by permitting us to net settle for transactions with the same counterparty. However, we do not net settle with such counterparties. As a result, we present derivatives at their gross fair values in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , information related to these offsetting arrangements was as follows: (In millions) As of September 30, 2017 Offsetting of Assets Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 4.8 $ — $ 4.8 $ (1.8 ) $ 3.0 (In millions) As of September 30, 2017 Offsetting of Liabilities Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 2.6 $ — $ 2.6 $ (1.8 ) $ 0.8 (In millions) As of December 31, 2016 Offsetting of Assets Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 7.2 $ — $ 7.2 $ (4.3 ) $ 2.9 (In millions) As of December 31, 2016 Offsetting of Liabilities Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Net Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 5.0 $ — $ 5.0 $ (4.3 ) $ 0.7 The following table presents the location and amount of the gain (loss) on foreign currency derivatives and on the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, as well as the net impact recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivatives Amount of Loss Recognized in Income on Derivatives Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (In millions) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Foreign exchange contracts Revenue $ 1.3 $ — $ 1.2 $ (0.5 ) Foreign exchange contracts Cost of sales — (0.2 ) 0.7 (0.3 ) Foreign exchange contracts Other income, net 0.7 0.1 0.9 (0.1 ) Total 2.0 (0.1 ) 2.8 (0.9 ) Remeasurement of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies (1.0 ) 0.1 (1.9 ) (0.2 ) Net gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions $ 1.0 $ — $ 0.9 $ (1.1 ) Interest Rates : We have entered into three interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate applicable to certain of our variable-rate debt. The agreements swap one-month LIBOR for fixed rates. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At September 30, 2017 , the fair value recorded in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was $0.5 million . The effective portion of these derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of ( $0.3 million ) has been reported in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Ineffectiveness from cash flow hedges, all of which are interest rate swaps, was immaterial as of September 30, 2017 . Refer to Note 9 . Fair Value Of Financial Instruments for a description of how the values of the above financial instruments are determined. Credit Risk By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and establishing credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses are established based on collectability assessments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of our business, we are at times subject to pending and threatened legal actions, some for which the relief or damages sought may be substantial. Although we are not able to predict the outcome of such actions, after reviewing all pending and threatened actions with counsel and based on information currently available, management believes that the outcome of such actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of such matters, if unfavorable, may be material to our results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not currently known. Liabilities are established for pending legal claims only when losses associated with the claims are judged to be probable, and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many lawsuits and arbitrations, it is not considered probable that a liability has been incurred or not possible to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no liability would be recognized until that time. We are currently the subject of an audit being conducted by the State of Delaware to determine whether we have complied with Delaware unclaimed property (escheat) laws. This audit is being conducted by an outside firm on behalf of the State of Delaware and covers the years from 1986 through the present. In addition to seeking the turnover of unclaimed property subject to escheat laws, the State of Delaware may seek interest, penalties, and other relief. We are not able to reasonably estimate a possible assessment from this audit at this time. Guarantees and Product Warranties In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, we issue standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments, which totaled $189.1 million at September 30, 2017 , represent guarantees of our future performance. We also have provided $18.4 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of our existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within two years ; we expect to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. In some instances, we guarantee our customers’ financing arrangements. We are responsible for payment of any unpaid amounts, but will receive indemnification from third parties for between seventy-five and ninety-five percent of the contract values. In addition, we generally retain recourse to the equipment sold. As of September 30, 2017 , the gross value of such arrangements was $5.0 million , of which our net exposure under such guarantees was $0.4 million . We provide warranties of various lengths and terms to certain of our customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. We provide for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists. We also provide a warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The warranty obligation reflected in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Warranty cost and accrual information were as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (In millions) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Balance at beginning of period $ 14.7 $ 12.7 $ 14.5 $ 12.5 Expense for new warranties 2.9 3.0 8.9 8.6 Adjustments to existing accruals — (0.1 ) (0.4 ) (0.5 ) Claims paid (3.4 ) (2.3 ) (10.8 ) (7.3 ) Added through acquisition 0.6 — 2.3 — Translation 0.2 — 0.5 — Balance at end of period $ 15.0 $ 13.3 $ 15.0 $ 13.3

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segment Information	BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION Operating segments for the Company are determined based on information used by the chief operating decision maker (CODM) in deciding how to evaluate performance and allocate resources to each of the segments. JBT’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). While there are many measures the CEO reviews in this capacity, the key segment measures reviewed include operating profit, operating income margin, and EBITDA. In the third quarter of 2017, we changed the internal structure of our management team; insofar that it increased the number of operating segments, as defined by ASC 280, Segment Reporting , for the Company. Although the number of operating segments has increased from prior periods, we have aggregated multiple operating segments into one reportable segment, FoodTech, as they exhibit similar long-term operational, financial and economic characteristics. As such, our reportable segments remain the same and prior period disclosures are still comparable. Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expenses. Business segment information was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (In millions) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Revenue: JBT FoodTech $ 296.1 $ 235.9 $ 816.6 $ 642.2 JBT AeroTech 124.8 112.7 334.8 303.3 Other revenue and intercompany eliminations (0.1 ) 1.0 — — Total revenue $ 420.8 $ 349.6 $ 1,151.4 $ 945.5 Income before income taxes Segment operating profit: JBT FoodTech $ 37.8 $ 28.2 $ 89.4 $ 78.0 JBT AeroTech 15.4 12.0 35.8 31.9 Total segment operating profit 53.2 40.2 125.2 109.9 Corporate items: Corporate expense (1) (10.7 ) (10.4 ) (31.5 ) (31.4 ) Restructuring expense (2) (0.3 ) (0.3 ) (1.3 ) (9.4 ) Operating income 42.2 29.5 92.4 69.1 Net interest expense (3.6 ) (2.8 ) (10.3 ) (7.0 ) Income from continuing operations before income taxes $ 38.6 $ 26.7 $ 82.1 $ 62.1 (1) Corporate expense generally includes corporate staff-related expense, stock-based compensation, pension and other postretirement benefit expenses not related to service, LIFO adjustments, certain foreign currency-related gains and losses, and the impact of unusual or strategic events not representative of segment operations.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring	RESTRUCTURING Restructuring costs primarily consist of employee separation benefits under our existing severance programs, foreign statutory termination benefits, certain one-time termination benefits, contract termination costs, asset impairment charges and other costs that are associated with restructuring actions. Certain restructuring charges are accrued prior to payments made in accordance with applicable guidance. For such charges, the amounts are determined based on estimates prepared at the time the restructuring actions were approved by management. In the first quarter of 2016, we implemented our optimization program to realign FoodTech’s Protein business in North America and Liquid Foods business in Europe, accelerate JBT’s strategic sourcing initiatives, and consolidate smaller facilities. The total estimated cost in connection with this plan is approximately $12.0 million . During the fourth quarter of 2016 we implemented and acquired a restructuring plan to consolidate certain facilities and optimize our general and administrative infrastructure subsequent to a FoodTech acquisition. The total estimated cost in connection with this plan is approximately $4.0 million . The following table details the amounts reported in Restructuring expense on the condensed consolidated statement of income since the implementation of these plans: Cumulative Amount For the Quarter Ended Cumulative Amount (In millions) As of December 31, 2016 March 31, 2017 June 30, 2017 September 30, 2017 As of September 30, 2017 Severance and related expense $ 6.1 $ 0.5 $ 0.1 $ — $ 6.7 Other 6.2 0.2 0.6 0.3 7.3 Total restructuring charges $ 12.3 $ 0.7 $ 0.7 $ 0.3 $ 14.0 The restructuring expense is associated with the FoodTech segment, and is excluded from our calculation of segment operating profit. Expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2017 primarily relate to costs to streamline operations and consolidate facilities as a direct result of our plan. Liability balances for restructuring activities are included in other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The table below details the activities in 2017: (In millions) Balance as of Charged to Earnings Payments Made Release of Liability Balance as of Severance and related expense $ 8.3 $ 0.5 $ (4.1 ) $ (0.4 ) $ 4.3 Other 0.6 1.2 (1.2 ) — 0.6 Total $ 8.9 $ 1.7 $ (5.3 ) $ (0.4 ) $ 4.9 The releases represent amounts which we no longer expect to pay in connection with this plan due to actual severance payments differing from the original estimates and natural attrition of employees. We expect to complete all plans by mid 2018.

Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim periods, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) do not include all of the information and notes for complete financial statements as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). As such, the accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the JBT Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 , which provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business, properties, and other matters. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the interim results and trends in the interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.
Use of Estimates	Use of estimates Preparation of financial statements that follow U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted	Recently adopted accounting standards In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330) – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory . The core principle of the ASU is that entities that historically used the lower of cost or market in the subsequent measurement of inventory will instead be required to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The guidance will not change U.S. GAAP for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. This guidance became effective for us as of January 1, 2017 and there was no effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The new guidance was developed as part of the FASB’s simplification initiative. The core principle of the ASU requires income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, and eliminates the requirement to report excess tax benefits in additional paid-in capital (APIC pool). It also allows an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting, and allows an employer to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The new standard became effective for us as of January 1, 2017. During the first quarter 2017, 278,316 awards vested, and resulted in a $5.8 million tax benefit reported in earnings, and is classified as an operating activity within the condensed consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The elimination of the APIC pool affects the treasury stock method used to calculate weighted average shares outstanding; however, the impact was not material. We elected to change our policy surrounding forfeitures, and beginning January 2017 we no longer estimate the number of awards expected to be forfeited but rather account for them as they occur. We are required to implement this portion of the guidance using a modified retrospective approach, and as such have recorded a cumulative adjustment of $0.6 million in retained earnings as of January 1, 2017. We also amended our incentive compensation and stock plan to allow JBT to have the discretion to withhold up to the maximum statutory rates, on an individual tax basis. A liability was not established as the withholding limits do not exceed the maximum. Cash paid for tax withholdings are classified as financing activity on the condensed consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, consistent with prior years. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments and Restricted Cash . The new guidance is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The core principle of the ASU requires the classification of eight specific cash flow issues identified under ASC 230 to be presented as either financing, investing or operating, or some combination thereof, depending upon the nature of the issue. Entities are required to use a retrospective transition approach for all of the issues identified for each period presented. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business . The core principle of the ASU is to clarify the definition of a business to require certain transactions to be accounted for as business combinations versus an acquisition of assets. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new guidance will simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment. The core principle of the ASU is to remove the requirement to calculate an implied fair value to determine impairment (Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test) and allow instead for goodwill impairment to equal the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The Company early adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017, prior to our 2017 annual testing of goodwill impairment, to be performed as of October 31st. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (ASC 718) - Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments provide guidance as to how an entity should account for a change in the terms and conditions of its share-based payment awards. The core principle of the ASU is to provide clarity, and reduce the variation in applied practice, as well as, cost and complexity in accounting for a change in the terms and conditions in an entity's share-based payment awards. The Company adopted the new ASU as of September 30, 2017. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as a result of adopting the ASU. Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted Beginning in 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), plus a number of related ASU’s designed to clarify and interpret Topic 606. The new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU requires companies to reevaluate when revenue is recorded based upon newly defined criteria, either at a point in time or over time as goods or services are delivered. The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates, and changes in those estimates. The new standard becomes effective for us as of January 1, 2018, with the option to early adopt the standard for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and allows for both retrospective and modified-retrospective methods of adoption. As previously disclosed, we will adopt Topic 606 on a modified-retrospective basis. In 2016, we completed our gap assessment and determined that approximately 30 - 40% of our total revenues will be subject to change dependent on the nature of the production process and contract terms. We believe that we will qualify for over time recognition for certain of our manufactured equipment as well as refurbishments. Under the new rules, revenue recognized for such projects in the future will result in an acceleration of revenue as compared to our current revenue recognition methodology of recognizing revenue at a point in time. We are continuing to quantify the impact of this change. We continue to execute our implementation plan and have developed new revenue accounting policies and processes; changed our internal controls over revenue recognition; created pro forma disclosures; and continue to implement system changes and enhancements. We will begin our transition evaluation for all contracts that will not be completed on January 1, 2018 in the fourth quarter of 2017. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The new standard will replace most existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU is the requirement for lessees to report a right to use asset and a lease payment obligation on the balance sheet but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to today’s accounting, and for lessors the guidance remains substantially similar to current U.S. GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. However, early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. We are in the process of evaluating the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory . The new guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for intercompany asset transfers. The core principle requires an entity to immediately recognize the tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted only at the beginning of an annual period for which no financial statements (interim or annual) have already been issued. The Company anticipates the adoption in the effective period and we are currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (ASC 715) - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Costs and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The new guidance will improve the presentation of pension cost by providing additional guidance on the presentation of net benefit cost in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization in assets. The core principle of the ASU is to provide more transparency in the presentation of these costs by requiring the service cost component to be reported in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The amendments require that the Consolidated Statements of Income impacts be applied retrospectively, while Balance Sheet changes should be applied prospectively. As such, upon adoption in 2018, the Company expects to revise operating income for fiscal year 2017 by $1.1 million , and report this income in non operating income. Operating income for the fiscal year 2016 will be revised by $2.3 million and operating income for 2015 will be revised by $0.6 million . There will be no impact to net income or to the Balance Sheet or Statement of Cash Flows. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company will adopt the newly issued ASU as of January 1, 2018. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The core of the principle is to simplify hedge accounting, as well as improve the financial reporting of hedging results, for both financial and commodity risks, in the financial statements and related disclosures. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after the issuance of the amendment, however, any adjustments should be made as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the interim period occurred. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

For PLF and AMSS the valuation of certain working capital balances, intangibles, income tax balances and residual goodwill related to each is not complete. For Avure and Tipper Tie the income tax balances and residual goodwill is not complete. We are also currently assessing the amount of goodwill that we expect to be deductible for tax purposes. These amounts are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date). During the quarter ended September 30, 2017 we refined our estimates of deferred tax assets for Avure by ($1.8) million and deferred tax liabilities by $0.7 million . The impact of these adjustments was reflected as a decrease in goodwill of $1.1 million , and resulted in an immaterial impact to the consolidated statement of income. During the quarter ended June 30, 2017 we refined our other intangible asset estimates for Avure by $2.6 million , deferred taxes by ($0.7) million and inventory by ($0.7) million . The impact of these adjustments was reflected as a decrease in goodwill of $1.2 million , and resulted in an immaterial impact to the consolidated statement of income. All other measurement period adjustments in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 3017 were not material. (2) The amounts shown represent final allocation of the cash paid for these acquisitions. (3) Other balances include Novus and AMSS. Novus balances are the final allocation of the cash paid for this acquisition. AMSS is preliminary, refer to Note (1). (4) The acquired definite-lived intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from five to fourteen years. The tradename intangible assets for Avure, Tipper Tie, C.A.T. and PLF have been identified as indefinite-lived intangible asset and will be reviewed annually for impairment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , PLF, AMSS and Avure had revenue and earnings (losses) of, $3.0 million and ($0.2) million , $3.6 million and $0 million , and $22.5 million and ($1.7) million , respectively.
