The construction industry is really going through a time of fast innovation! In many ways, the industry is starting to resemble technology firms, especially with the advent of telematics, autonomous machinery, and electromobility. It’s an exciting time for manufacturers and users alike, as they work together to foster this shift.

One of the biggest opportunities for businesses in this space is that they can now improve their offers with breakthrough technologies. This means that they can now assure increased machine uptime, longer equipment lifecycles, and provide tailored solutions for clients. With the incorporation of these new technologies, businesses that may have previously trailed areas like transportation and agriculture, now have a big opportunity to catch up!

So, Here are a some of the key technological breakthroughs that are currently shaping the construction equipment business:

Electromobility

Hybrid and new battery technologies are being tested around the world. They are quieter, more efficient, and more sustainable. Predictive analytics/telematics, connected machines are sending tons of information that can be used for actionable predictions. For example, knowing a machine will break down enables companies to take them offline for maintenance before a jobsite is unexpectedly thrown to a halt.

Autonomous machines

Autonomous machines are a reality and will be successful in construction long before they take over commuter roads. They’ll be used on closed sites, with limited circulation of pedestrians and other machines, before coming to the city. Remote-controlled mining is advancing mining projects, as operators control equipment from digital cockpits. This development allows for remote operation of heavy equipment miles down in a mine from a safe above-ground location. This takes humans out of dangerous conditions and helps attract new workers because it’s less dangerous, dirty, and plays more like a video game.

Connected machines

Connected machines are changing the way jobsites that build skyscrapers, power plants, mines, and more operate. The machines are now communicating with one another and home base, making the work more efficient and dramatically increasing safety.

All of these breakthroughs are really exciting, and we can’t wait to see how they continue to shape the future of heavy equipment! Ready to explore the latest in heavy equipment and parts for top brands?
