Leading earthmoving and construction expo returns to Sydney Dragway

 

To be held from April 8 to 10 this year, the National Diesel Dirt and Turf expo returns with gold sponsor, Komatsu, alongside hundreds of former and new exhibitors.

The event, which is free to attend, promises something for everyone in the family.

This year, the show will once again be held at the Sydney Dragway, situated in Eastern Creek, NSW.

 

Some highlights of the show include a machinery challenge where operators go head-to-head in a series of excavator challenges to see who reigns supreme, as well as Pickles Auction’s live auction on the Saturday of the expo.

Hundreds of items are expected to go under the hammer at the annual Saturday event, and visitors are encouraged to drop by to grab a bargain.

There is also a Little Big Rigs arena for the kids, where miniature, remote-controlled trucks and machinery come to life, and daily performances by the Freestyle Kings motocross team for the thrill-seekers.

 

Komatsu to showcase range of new tech

Komatsu will be returning as the show’s gold sponsor this year, and will be exhibiting an exciting range of tech and products at its stand at B1.

One of the more exciting pieces of equipment that will be on display at the stand is a remote-controlled mini excavator prototype.

“Designed to lay the foundation for the commercialisation of fully electric construction equipment, the fully electric 3-tonne mini-excavator [below] is based on Komatsu’s technological expertise in electric forklifts and mini excavators and incorporates new technologies, such as lithium-ion batteries and electric cylinders,” said Komatsu executive general manager for construction, Dean Gaedtke.

 

“We will also be showcasing a range of construction equipment, including our Intelligent Machine Control models, as well as our Smart Construction technology solution, Komatsu iSite.”

Komatsu said there will be opportunities for visitors to test drive some of the equipment on display.
