Bauma 2025: Networked construction
Efficient, transparent and sustainable
Unlocking the potential of digitisation with networked construction is the third hot topic at Bauma 2025. More efficient, more transparent and more sustainable – digitisation and networking are seen as effective measures to help get a grip on the major challenges facing the construction industry.
As a result, contractors are gaining a growing amount of data, which not only shows them the condition of their construction machinery fleets, but also provides valuable information on their performance. This knowledge creates new opportunities in the use and scheduling of equipment, such as better fuel consumption, reduced idle times and optimised machine deployment.
Innovation insights
The focus on innovation at this year’s Bauma exhibition shows how HCME is evolving into a true solution provider for Europe’s construction sector. As the shift towards increased digitalisation and data utilisation continues, we will be perfectly placed to tackle the industry challenges that lie ahead.
A perfect example is the all-in-one fleet management tool, LANDCROS CONNECT, which provides instant access to the latest performance data on our construction machinery, as well as other brands of equipment. All from one system, users can gain a bird’s-eye view of their fleet, generate custom reports on key metrics and create geofences to analyse productivity.
Turning data into insights
Another important element of HCME’s display is the ConSite family of applications and services. This is unique due to its comprehensive approach to machine health management, and industry-leading innovations, such as the oil condition monitoring sensor. At Bauma, HCME will show how ConSite Pocket, ConSite Scan, ConSite Helmet, and the 3D parts catalogue are being enhanced with advanced technology.
Further updates have also been made to the Hitachi telematics API, reflecting the increasing adoption of this technology. With the introduction of 10- and 60-minute data frequency options, contractors now gain near real-time insights and a more accurate, up-to-date view of their fleet operations.
Value-added solutions
The essential requirement for optimum machine performance, and avoiding errors and accidents, is that humans and machines work together safely and effectively on a networked construction site. To demonstrate this, one of the most popular Zaxis-7 models, the ZX210LC-7, will be exhibited with the first collision mitigation machine control system for excavators in Europe.
The Advanced Aerial Angle camera system prevents collisions by decelerating or stopping travel and swing motions when an object is detected. It also provides audio and visual warnings for both the operator and other personnel on the job site.
