CASE Construction Equipment’s D series motor graders, the 836D and 856D, boast many of the operator comfort and productivity benefits as with the previous machines but the D series has now been upgraded with improved operator controls and systems.

There is a new touchscreen display, for all machine and maintenance information and to provide a monitor for the rear-view camera. This customisable screen is located on top of a redesigned front console.  

Cams has expanded its Centauro range of combined shredders and screeners with the addition of the Centauro 75.25. This is the fifth and smallest member of the Centauro family, weighing in at 15,000kg. It is 10m long and provides a potential output of 100tonnes per hour.

Topcon Positioning System’s new RD-M2 laser scanner has been purpose-built for road resurfacing applications.

The vehicle-mounted downward-facing RD-M2 delivers precise surface conditions over long and complex roads, which means no road closures are needed.  

Millions of points are collected by the vehicle operator from safety of his or her cab.

The 3D point data from the RD-M2 scanner serves as the basis for detailed road surface designs using the Topcon Office Suite.  

These ground-truth surfaces are a part of the company’s SmoothRide system workflow.

Emergency road repair work needn’t create yet another emergency by hitting unknow utility pipes and other systems.  

Leica Geosystems says its DSX utility detection solution can quickly be walked over the area where work is about to start and immediately show an excavator operator any dangers that lie below.

It locates, visualises and map utilities. Unlike any other ground penetrating radar system, the Leica DSX maximises productivity with cutting-edge software that automates data analysis and creates a 3D utility map of the field.

The new Marini Evodryer Plus plant is said to offer customers a sophisticated plant capable of handling high percentages of up to 70% RAP in the feed, while featuring just one drum. This slots into the range between the more complex and costly parallel drum plants able to handle up to 80% RAP in the feed, and the simpler existing units with just one drum that can handle up to 60% RAP in the feed.

The key to the plant is the way the hot gas generator is integrated into the single drum. “It’s a completely different concept,” said a company spokesperson.

Dynapac and Leica Geosystems are launching automated steering and screed edge control for asphalt pavers.  

Together, the two firms are introducing a new integrated interface for auto-steering and screed edge control system for the SD25 and XD25 Highway Paver series.  

The auto-steering and screed edge control features are being enabled on Dynapac asphalt pavers with the Leica iCON pave solution.  

The HiPer XR, from Topcon Positioning Systems, is a robust high-precision GNSS receiver for surveying, construction and geospatial work. It delivers precision and efficiency, tackling all challenges with RTK accuracy and Dynamic TILT Compensation technology for effortless measurements, even in difficult conditions.

Its anti-jamming capabilities ensure reliable performance, while the lightweight, rugged design withstands harsh environments. The HiPer XR is about versatile connectivity with long battery life at an affordable price.

The X15 engine from Cummins delivers more than just power and drivability for offroad machines, it offers reliability and operating-cost reductions through a proprietary, prognostic-based, maintenance-monitoring system says the manufacturer.

Millions of miles of testing data has been analysed by Cummins engineering experts to allow the new engine to deliver life-remaining forecasts on engine consumables including oil, oil filter, stage 2 fuel filter, DPF, and urea filter.

Komatsu has unveiled the all-new WA700-8 wheeled loader, which the manufacturer says delivers increased productivity, exceptional durability, and impeccable environmental credentials.

Before commencing development, Komatsu engineers actively collected customers’ input, identifying that safety, cost-per-tonne produced, CO2 emission, maximising uptime, and operator well-being were the key concerns of customers.  

Trimble has exhibited its advanced, remote roadbuilding technology.

The US tech giant demonstrated the system with a Vögele Super 2100-5 X tracked road-paving machine.

Trimble regional sales manager DACH, Martin Wagener, said the control system utilises two masts and if the road gets narrower, the width of the screed can be controlled remotely.

“The operator drives the machine, but we control the screed-spreading process,” he added. 

Komatsu Europe has premiered its new next-generation WA475-11 and WA485-11 wheeled loaders, which the manufacturer says represent a leap forward in performance and efficiency.

At the heart of new Dash 11 generation wheeled loaders is a newly developed Komatsu diesel engine which is characterised by extremely high torque in the low-speed range. This new engine is combined with a Komatsu-designed hydro-mechanical-transmission (HMT), resulting in excellent performance, power reserves, fuel efficiency and ease of operation for all transport and loading tasks.
