Increased safety and efficiency for construction machinery

Continental will display new solutions from its wide-ranging portfolio for construction vehicles, construction machinery, and for industrial applications in machine and plant engineering at bauma 2016.

Safety and efficiency are among the current trends in the construction machinery industry. At this year's bauma from April 11 to 17 in Munich, ContiTech will display new solutions for this from its wide-ranging portfolio for construction vehicles, construction machinery, and for industrial applications in machine and plant engineering.

Trackman rubber tracks from ContiTech ensure safe transportation in the construction industry. They are like closed drive belts with a track section on which heavy devices and tractor units such as pickups or road construction equipment move forward. Thanks to new Armorlug technology, the rubber tracks now achieve an even better performance and are longer-lasting.

Several fabric layers embedded in the drive lugs strengthen the material, and this enhances the product's resistance capability. ContiTech will present the further-developed products at bauma for the first time.

Reliable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly: these characteristics are also exhibited by the conveyor belt solutions for the efficient transportation of goods. Trade fair visitors can find out about the latest product solutions regarding steep-incline conveying, closed belt systems, heat-resistant conveyor belts, energy-optimized transportation, or light PVC belts, e.g. for the foodstuffs or packaging industry.

Extremely flexible, and resistant to kinking if necessary: this description fits a new high-temperature hose, that features a systematically lightweight design and facilitates narrow bending radii. Anti-vibration technology and drive belts for industrial vehicles and systems will also be on show, as well as air spring systems for vibrating screen machines, for example. Particularly scratch-resistant surface materials for the interior of off-road vehicles are a perfect match for the tough conditions in day-to-day operations on the construction site.

Further highlights at Continental’s booth in hall B2, booth 403, are instrumentation, and a telematics system for collecting and processing tire- and vehicle-related data. In addition, visitors will be able to experience many products live in a single-drum compactor cab at the booth.
