Presentation

Construction and agricultural machine companies are committed to climate targets up to 2030 and later. How will autonomous technology help them fulfill these science-based targets?

More and more machine manufacturers (OEMs) have committed to climate targets for 2030 and 2050. These targets are known as science-based targets. These targets will strongly influence the whole machine architecture of future machines and require new solutions for prime movers, hydraulics, drive and work functions. Electrification is one way, but not the only one. On the other hand, we must consider the work process and the potential for fulfilling future climate targets. Stieler deeply understands new drive technologies and autonomous machines with a forecast up to 2030. This presentation will show what big players do regarding automation and autonomy with their future machines. It will give examples of autonomous functions and autonomous machines in construction equipment and agricultural machines. Furthermore, it will show how autonomy will change existing technologies (prime movers, hydraulics, drive and work technology).
