Strategic focus

Achieving industry goals together!

The conference is organized along four strategic development goals of the construction machinery industry. These goals run through both days of the conference and characterize the contributions of the decision-makers.

Alternative drive concepts

In order to reduce the carbon footprint of the construction machinery industry and meet legal requirements, the development of alternative drive systems is becoming increasingly important. In this column, we highlight the latest advances and challenges in the areas of electromobility, hydrogen and other zero-emission drive technologies. We discuss how these concepts are changing the use of construction machinery in the long term and what requirements are necessary for their successful integration on the construction site.

Digitalization and networking

The digitalization and networking of individual machines and entire machine fleets opens up new opportunities to increase efficiency and reduce costs. This pillar is dedicated to the question of how modern technologies such as IoT, big data and real-time data analysis are revolutionizing the construction machinery industry. Topics such as predictive maintenance, fleet management and the integration of digital construction processes take center stage and show how networking leads to improved performance and planning.

Assistance systems and automation

Assistance systems and automation are key innovations that not only increase efficiency, but also improve work safety and precision in complex construction projects. In this column, we present the latest developments in the areas of autonomous construction machinery, driver assistance systems and remote control technologies. Practical use cases and the challenges associated with implementing these technologies will be discussed - with the aim of paving the way for fully autonomous construction sites.
