The Wirtgen Group supports and assists its customers in fast and cost-efficient ways, with the realization of the world鈥檚 continuously growing demands for infrastructure and the fulfillment of specific criteria relating to environmental protection and the safety of humanity and nature. These include solutions not only for individual machines and their engine and drive train technologies but also for complete production systems in the road construction sector.

The company鈥檚 holistic approach to the entire road construction process chain promises the most effective understanding of the greatest ecological and economic potentials. The Wirtgen Group provides solutions for the entire road construction process chain, and the group is presenting a cross-section of them in a dedicated special exhibition area at its booth. Here, visitors from all areas of the industry can gain insights into how customers can sustainably and cost-effectively see their road construction projects through the efficient interplay of construction equipment and technical solutions from the specialist product brands of Wirtgen, 痴枚驳别濒别, Hamm, Kleemann and Benninghoven.

Alongside machine efficiency and alternative applications and methods, digitization and connected system solutions are important drivers in the development of the overall road construction process chain. In the Technology Zone, the Wirtgen Group is showing application-specific core technologies as well as digital solutions and technologies of tomorrow that are already available today.

The Wirtgen Group is a pioneer in the realization of greater mobility in road construction. And, in this process, sustainability is a mainstay of the group鈥檚 corporate strategy. As a part of the John Deere Construction and Forestry Division, the sustainability goals of the Wirtgen Group make a valuable contribution to the overall strategy. For instance, a significant reduction of the emissions of transporting and operating machines and the overall activities at the group鈥檚 production facilities and sites is expected by 2030. At the same time, the Wirtgen Group anticipates a continuous increase in the number of sustainable machine and technology solutions by 2026. Visitors to the Wirtgen Group booth can learn more about the group鈥檚 sustainability targets in a special exhibition on the roof terrace of the Technology Zone.

The Wirtgen Group鈥檚 clear commitment to sustainability is also shown in the world premieres and innovations presented by its product brands.

For instance, the Mill Assist machine control system now also assures sustainable and efficient machine operation in the new generation of compact milling machines from Wirtgen. With the KMA 240i cold recycling mixing plant, it is now not only possible to produce high-quality mixes from recycled construction materials, but also cement-treated base layers.

That 痴枚驳别濒别 sees green as much more than the color of the paintwork of its machines, is clearly demonstrated by the company鈥檚 new Dash 5 generation of road pavers. Also on display are the SUPER 1900-5(i) and SUPER 2100-5(i) Highway Class pavers and the latest generation of the AB 500 and AB 600 extending screeds.

In the future, electrically-powered HD CompactLine tandem rollers from Hamm can step up to the plate whenever contracts demand zero-emission compaction. The e-tandem rollers are the ideal solution in all areas where compaction work must be particularly quiet. As, in many cases, low vibration levels are also specified, the compaction specialist is also presenting an e-combination roller with oscillation alongside e-vibration and e-oscillation rollers.

The drive system of the new MOBIREX MR 130(i) PRO mobile impact crusher from Kleemann is also fully electric. Thanks to the option for connection to an external power supply, the plant enables materials processing with low energy consumption per ton of the final product.

John Deere is coming to the event with a representative selection of construction equipment and corresponding technologies that are tailored to the needs of the European market and ideally complement the Wirtgen Group鈥檚 portfolio.

Hyundai to show fuel cell concept

Hyundai Construction Equipment has developed the HW155H concept wheeled excavator, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell. The hydrogen fuel cell is more compatible with larger construction machinery than the lithium-ion batteries currently being employed in smaller electric mini excavator models.

Hyundai Construction Equipment started development of a hydrogen fuel cell-powered driveline in 2020, having signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Hyundai Motors and with Hyundai Mobis, at its Mabuk Research Centre in Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do. The three companies committed to develop a hydrogen fuel cell, to power forklifts and medium/large excavators over the coming years.

Unlike a conventional wheeled excavator, where a diesel engine drives a hydraulic pump to power the machine, the hydrogen excavator has a fuel cell mounted in the rear of the upperstructure that creates electrical energy. This is used to power the hydraulic pump, to drive the machine in the normal way.

The fuel cell relies on a chemical reaction between the stored hydrogen and oxygen that is present in the air. The fuel cell stack generates electrical energy from this reaction, with an inverter converting this energy into usable electrical power. The only emission from the fuel cell stack is water, a combination of the hydrogen and oxygen. When the hydrogen is produced using renewable energy, such as off-shore wind, this creates an incredibly low-carbon powertrain.

The hydrogen is stored on the right-hand side of the excavator, opposite the operator鈥檚 cab, in high-pressure tanks. This technology is already in use in the passenger bus and commercial vehicle business. Indeed, Hyundai has been supplying fuel cell-powered road trucks to customers in Switzerland for the last two years. These trucks run on green hydrogen created from hydropower or renewable energy, resulting in a zero-carbon driveline.

Electric, digital concepts from Bobcat

Bobcat will showcase some of its latest machine and technology concepts in development for contractors at the world鈥檚 largest construction equipment trade show in October. For Bauma 2022 in Munich Germany, the company will have a comprehensive display of its wheeled and tracked loaders, compact excavators, telehandlers and more. This will include new excavators of 5 to 8 metric tonne and new attachments.

Bobcat has unveiled two electric compact excavators the E32 and the E10e, its first electric compact excavator announced in 2019 and the world鈥檚 first electric compact track loader the T7X unveiled earlier this year.

With the T7X Bobcat has delivered a connected all-electric machine designed for power and performance. The CTL has been recognized for its ingenuity with two CES Innovation Awards in the Vehicle Intelligence and Transportation and Smart Cities categories.

At Bauma, Bobcat will be using the T7X to continue to gather feedback from customers who work in different applications so the company can understand market opportunities in Europe the Middle East and Africa. In addition, the company will be looking to study the regulatory needs in Europe and after-sales infrastructure readiness.

Raimondi Cranes to unveil flattop tower cranes

All machines will be equipped with the new crane cabin, available in two models, ensuring the highest levels of comfort and safety. Significant improvements have been made on the structural side with the cabin now featuring a single glass block on the frontal and side windshields, allowing an increase in visibility by 30 per cent. Other major features are the canalized air system to reduce window fogging, an ergonomic seat, and several internal accessories to boost crane operator comfort.

Mecalac to launch range of electric equipment

Mecalac plans to unveil a full set of medium-sized electric equipment for the urban construction site at Bauma 2022. The new equipment trio consists of the 11-tonne e12 excavator the 1.3-cubic-yard es1000 swing loader and the 6-tonne eD6 site dumper.

Mecalac will also roll out its new battery-charging system called M-Power at the show October 24-28 in Munich Germany. Mecalac designed the products to provide a zero-emission low-noise solution for the urban construction site.

With these complementary products all earthmoving operations (digging loading and transporting) can now be carried out with emission-free machines on a scale never before achieved.
