178 Caterpillar, with its Italian dealer CGT, will exhibit the latest products and solutions under Successful Together, a theme highlighting continued focus and full commitment to supporting the business success of Caterpillar customers.

More than 40 Cat machines and work tools will be on display including a new range of Cat mini hydraulic excavators, the first products to be introduced following Caterpillar's announcement of a long-term strategic partnership with 1651 Wacker Neuson SE, the German compact and light equipment manufacturer, for less than 3tonne excavators.

The first three models to be introduced from this partnership, and displayed at 323 Samoter, are the 300.9D, 301.4C and 302.7D CR.

In addition to the machines, the Cat stand will feature a central area dedicated to practical, business driven innovations, technology and services designed to help customers' success, lessen environmental impact and work more safely.

Most importantly, the area incorporates information on Tier 4/Stage IIIB solutions, the D7E electric drive track-type tractor, as well as Connected Worksite technology with next generation Product Link and new integrated Cat Grade Control.

The area also presents CGT Edilizia, a new company solely dedicated to Cat's building construction products in Italy. It focuses on selling and servicing as well as renting these compact Cat machines.
