The Conexpo Con/Agg Innovation Awards are sponsored by Diesel Progress magazine and global powertrain specialist ZF Friedrichshafen. Each product category includes four machines that a panel of Diesel Progress editors selected as,  “…some of the most interesting examples of machine engineering.”

“The awards are an excellent fit with the show; our exhibitors unveil their product breakthroughs at Conexpo-Con/Agg, and attendees know the show is where they’ll find what they need to work smarter,” Tanel added.
