Last year was attended by nearly 1500 companies. This year, the number of companies will be even greater. "Construction Equipment and Technologies" - the largest exhibition and demonstration of construction machinery, equipment and technology in Russia, CIS and Eastern Europe, which annually brings together the leading manufacturers and suppliers of equipment and services. A distinctive feature of the exhibition is a demonstration of construction machinery, equipment and new technologies in conditions close to reality - at the demonstration sites and stands of exhibitors. The experience of the organizers, proven concept, well thought out advertising campaign, a clear professional orientation, an interesting exhibition and a full program allows you to show "CTT and Technology" to become a major annual event in the field of construction machinery and equipment. Undoubtedly, one of the most anticipated events was the presentation of special equipment from the GAZ Group, which unites 18 enterprises of the national automobile industry in 10 regions of Russia. In the division "Trucks" GAZ Group "includes such giants as:" Tver Excavator "," CHSDM "excavator plant" Kovrovets "," Bryansk Arsenal and Zavolzhsky plant crawler tractors. Proceeds from sales division in the past year amounted to 6,6 billion rubles. This year, GAZ Group showed six new products. The exhibition was shown two new families of heavy excavator Keith. Excavators KIT-30 KIT-40, representing the 5th dimensional group. This - the product of joint production of two plants "Kovrovets" and "Tver Excavator. One of the main parts of the strategic development of GAZ Group marked the establishment of a full model range of hydraulic crawler excavators. New Excavator "Whale" - followers of the model CIT-26, four-wheel drive universal shovel crawler excavator. KIT-30 is distinguished by high productivity and improved kinematic parameters of digging. The machine is designed for heavy loads: to improve its reliability using rigid chassis and hydraulics «Bosch» in basic configuration, reinforced chassis construction. Cab provides good visibility, has a high rate of vibration-and sound-proofing, is characterized by high levels of comfort and equipped with high-performance German heating appliance Zenit-8000 with electronic temperature control. KIT-40 - excavator specifically designed to work in the quarries. The undoubted advantage is its high degree of commonality with the model number of excavators series "Whale". The excavator is equipped with a complete set of hydraulic «Bosch», nodes and aggregates crawler tracks (tracks, wheels, tightening and running wheel) of the firm «Berco». Factory tests of two new models will begin in the near future. Assumed that by the end of this year, both the excavator will be put into mass production. Another, no less remarkable innovation was the motor grader GS-25.09 - all-wheel drive vehicle with hydrostatic front switchable bridge components based on the French company «Poclain». In late April, the first prototype car was sent to France for testing. The French experts noted that the grader is distinguished by high capacity, high reliability design, high-traction-coupling characteristics and comfortable working conditions of the operator. It is Russia's first grader, equipped with an automatic transmission produced by German company «ZF». By car, installed disc brakes that do not require repair and maintenance throughout the life of the machine. The model is equipped with a new cabin and transmission. The company claimed that the mass production of GS-25.09 starts this year. At the exhibition, the company presented two new loader: Front loader V-190 and forklift VP-07. Front-end loader V-190 - the heaviest of the manufactured production line of front loaders "CHSDM", designed for large volumes of industrial and road construction works. The purpose of development - the creation of competitive heavy truck with a bucket of improved content and kinematics of the working equipment, less stress in the metal and allowing much lower weight equipment without sacrificing the basic parameters. Designed for loading bulk materials and, excavate the soil category 1 and 2 with the discharge of soil in the dump or on vehicles, planning areas, transportation of bulk materials, as well as for road construction, installation and rigging. Nominal capacity V-190 - 9 tons, the nominal capacity of the bucket - 5 m ³. Forklift VP-07 was created based on well-proven serial loader VP-05. Compared with its predecessor, the EP-07 has reinforced bridges and changed the drive speed. These improvements have increased the speed of movement and maneuverability. Installing the converter exhaust gas allows the use of technology not only to work on the street but also indoors. Carrying capacity, in two tons of excess capacity of VP-05, reached with virtually no increase in size. New "TVEKS" has a wider range of applications. VP-07 is designed for rigging and transport works, capturing, raising and lowering cargo weighing up to 7 tons, transportation and stacking of cargo and other operations in a warehouse, various industries, construction and transport. Both the loader in the near future will be available to buyers. Just this year, GAZ Group is shown at an exhibition 32 models. For visitors of the exhibition was arranged "joust" with the participation of actors of the theater and movies, stuntmen, dancers and Prospect of more than 200 people. The exhibits unique show, where in a two-story castle excavators, graders and loaders have become the iron men to take part in the Knights' tournament. In front of the amazed public front loader chooses the lady of the heart and gallantly showered with rose petals. Backhoe easily pulls out from the stone boulder enchanted wizard Merlin sword. Rail cars are entertained by a beautiful Queen Guinevere, supporting wire on which the clown-tightrope walker performs a dizzying stunts. Heath began to show fire-breathing dragon, which was barely recognize the new motor grader group "GAS".
