The STR50E is SANY’s first fully electric 5-tonne roller. Electric road construction machines operate quietly and emission-free, making them particularly suitable for use in environmentally sensitive areas.

The STR50E is equipped with a powerful electric motor, up to 8 hours of runtime and a fast-charging function. It is ideal for urban construction sites and sustainable infrastructure projects while helping to meet environmental regulations and lower operational costs.

AutoTrac automatic steering and width control system for pavers can relieve users, increase work safety and boost efficiency. This is just one example of how Vögele is automating numerous control functions.

Other examples are the Vögele Edge Control guide wire follower, the fixed screed width, the new Edge Detection edge follower and the tried-and-tested Steering Control automatic steering system. Using various sensors and physical references, users can automatically control width and direction in this way.

With Smart Compact Pro, Hamm says that it has a tool that will significantly improve the service life of roads. At the same time, it will also dramatically reduce the costs borne by the contractor.

As such, Smart Compact Pro heralds the dawn of a new era of asphalt compaction for construction companies and operators.

Meanwhile, it is becoming increasingly important to ensure operations on construction sites are monitored, documented and analysed.

The biggest challenge in large-scale asphalting projects is maintaining a constant temperature of the mix. This is exactly where Fliegl’s ASW Thermo push-off trailer can help.

In contrast to conventional tipper vehicles, the Thermo push-off trailer enables controlled and even material discharge. This reduces material losses, prevents compaction problems and ensures precise dosing of the asphalt. In addition, the push-off trailer can be unloaded in low halls or under bridges - a clear advantage over tippers.

The new eABG 4820 electric drive paver from Ammann is currently the largest electric paver on the market, according to the company. It recently placed 1,200tonnes of asphalt in a day, while at the same time reducing CO2 emissions by 70%.

The paver uses a Variomatic screed and works at widths up to 6.5m. Paving output is 500tonnes/hour and maximum paving speed is 20m/minute. The hopper has a capacity of 12.7tonnes.

Hitachi is offering a range of excavators that are specially modified for use in certain applications. 

The ZX250LC-7 super long front (SLF), is assembled at the HCME factory in Amsterdam and suits duties such as dredging, loading and slope-finishing. The boom and arm design combines strength and versatility, allowing an extended working range of 18m.

Caterpillar is unveiling its 140 AWD Next Generation Motor Grader prototype. Weighing in at 20 tonnes, this machine benefits from a range of new technologies that boost productivity and finish quality. The firm says that the 140 AWD Next Generation Motor Grader combines two existing platforms into a common next generation platform for motor graders. The result is a machine that provides customers a wider array of operating features, technologies and configurations.

CASE is offering advanced driver assistance systems for its wheeled loaders. These are designed to enhance safety, efficiency and productivity on the job site. The new systems include better visibility, obstacle and hazard perception, AI-based driving assistance and semi to fully-autonomous loader operations.

Bell will start production later this year of its motor graders for Stage 3 markets after years of research, development and having prototypes on site.

Jeremiah Mokhomo, Bell Equipment product manager, explained that the Tier 3 range consists of three base models, each available in either a 4WD or 6WD configuration. The G140 is well suited to all maintenance and light to medium construction tasks. The G160, with its increased power and performance, is designed to handle heavy construction applications, while the G200 is designed for bulk earthworks and the mining industry.

Liebherr is unveiling an array of low emissions solutions for powering construction and extraction machinery. These include alternative fuels such as hydrogen and HVO, as well as electric systems. Some are ready for market now, while others are still in development however.
