Voters who register have the chance to win a new 2794 Microsoft Surface Pro tablet computer. The inaugural awards will be announced at special ceremonies during the 2014 show, to be held March 4-8, 2014 in Las Vegas, USA. The winner roster will also be displayed online. “Conexpo Con/Agg brings together the industry’s newest technologies and product innovations, and we want to showcase the ‘best of the best’ from the customers’ point of view,” stated Megan Tanel, show director.

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.

  • ZF chooses radial motor technology for its hydrostatic transmission
    January 6, 2017
    ZF has chosen a pair of radial hydraulic motors for use in its compact single-speed hydrostatic transmission, the 2HC85, which has been developed for compact wheeled loaders up to 100kW and 10.5tonnes operating weight. For high-torque start-up, the transmission sends oil to both motors and demands maximum stroke to travel from 0-16kph, before isolating one motor and then using 100% oil flow through the remaining motor to propel the machine to its maximum travel speed of 42kph. ZF said radial motors afford a
