Volvo CE is now offering a new screed heating option for its asphalt pavers, which can also be retrofitted to existing machines

The contract will comprise a 25km two-track railway to run trains at 200kph and a catenary system of which 18km will be inside the immersed road-rail Fehmarnbelt Tunnel.

Komatsu is unveiling its prototype electric compact wheeled loader, which has been designed and built together with Moog, a specialist in the field of precision control components and systems. Moog’s Intelligent electric system includes an electric traction motor, lift, tilt and steering electric cylinders, power electronics, system control computer, battery, and battery management system. The integrated control system connects and coordinates the actions across the machine, while the all-electric actuators and motors drive the machine’s traction and loading system, offering high efficiency and controllability.

Giatec says that its new SmartMix package is a mix management, automated mix analytics, and reporting software. This is said to allow producers to optimise their concrete mixes in real time to reduce cement usage and mix cost.

The panel of experts from Trimble and Dynapac discussed where the construction industry is on the path to autonomy at present, where it is heading, and Trimble’s overall corporate vision for the future. Trimble’s philosophy is that machine autonomy is about more than just controlling the machine. To move the industry forward, autonomy solutions must also turn real-time data into real-time information to optimise and coordinate the jobsite of the future according to Trimble. Providing full access to that data presents a challenge, but can be achieved.

Norway is to use Trimble software technology.
