CNH has closed the deal for its purchase of Hemisphere GNSS, a move that consolidates its capabilities for machine guidance and connectivity technology. This development strengthens CNH’s position as a leading technology provider for construction.

From 2024 onwards, we will bring notable value to customers through significant advancements in our journey from automating certain tasks to fully autonomous operation,” said Marc Kermisch, chief digital & information officer at CNH.
