BOMAG Advanced Smart Cockpit - Continental Group's latest collection of technology and product solutions for construction machinery

The cockpit is an important part of modern construction machinery and equipment, which plays a vital role in the safety, efficiency and comfort of the entire vehicle. In recent years, with the acceleration of modernization and technological advancement of engineering machinery, people have put forward higher requirements for the safety of engineering machinery cockpit, the efficiency of man-machine interface and the comfort of driving operation. In order to meet market demand, improve vehicle operation efficiency, ensure operational safety, and improve current production environment, Continental has developed a solution – BOMAG Advanced Intelligent Cockpit, which includes the following product and solution advantages:

360-degree panoramic image monitoring system: It is convenient for the driver to observe the surrounding situation by visually monitoring the situation around the vehicle body to avoid blind zone safety accidents.

Real-time electronic streaming rearview mirror: Electronically mirrors the rear view mirror, avoiding the blockage of the vehicle and reducing windage. The vehicle blind spot is greatly reduced, the line of sight is clear, and other vehicle information can be displayed to provide human-machine information interaction.

12.3-inch full LCD programmable meter: Provides a more cool display with information interaction and customizable programming.

7-inch full LCD second display: Large size, high-resolution LCD screen, easy to read, convenient interactive display technology experience.

Cockpit head-up display: A comprehensive information display system with scientific information. More information can be realized in real time through multi-screen combination.

Seat and interior materials: A better tactile experience, providing drivers with a comfortable working environment and area by color, material and texture, environmentally friendly and healthy.

Cockpit air spring system: Provides a more comfortable working experience for the driver, providing safety and comfort, and reducing noise.

Sensors identify conveyor status in real time

Continental is concerned with conveyor belts for all types of bulk and bulk cargo. To showcase smart solutions to customers, the company developed a display model that illustrates the current market trends in belt monitoring and full service applications. The model covers approximately one square meter and provides a variety of information and data. Conveyor belts with sensors detect every movement of the material being conveyed, they check the surface, fill level or operate incorrectly to report in real time. In addition, a database can be stored to store information, and the algorithm evaluates the status of the conveyor belt and knows when it needs to be repaired.

Conveyor belt monitoring systems allow us to check safety-related belt performance. At the same time, this technology provides conditions for new business models, such as predictive maintenance of components or systems. Data monitoring requires extensive expertise in conveyor belts and specific knowledge of sensors, which is owned by Continental. All business units work closely together. This optimizes maintenance and makes unplanned downtime a thing of the past. Continental uses optical sensors and radar technology for this purpose.

Super soft wear-resistant constant pressure high performance hose helps safely transport media

In the case of very harsh working conditions, the requirements for construction machinery and equipment are becoming more and more strict. For example, the boom part of the excavator requires good fatigue resistance, high oil resistance and wear resistance. Three constant pressure super-soft wear-resistant hydraulic hoses such as XCP4S/5S/6S are the best choice for this application. Its oil resistance can reach up to 120 °C, which is 20% higher than the 4SH hose. Its bending radius is only 1/2 of the original and very flexible. The wear resistance is more than 5 times higher than the standard. More importantly: The static/dynamic pulse performance is increased by more than 50% compared to the 4SH standard, which greatly extends the life of the hose.

Air spring system on-site identification experience

The industrial application of the air spring system will provide NFC tags for its Type C air spring products, allowing each data to be at the user's fingertips. Each "label" contains a data sheet for each product, and each product can be quickly identified in a matter of seconds. It is worth mentioning that the label can be read by any NFC-enabled device. The air spring system will recognize from 2019. It was applied to the market at the beginning of the year.

German horse brand special tires for earthworks, dump trucks, loaders and bulldozers

Articulated dump trucks, loaders and bulldozers are used to transport large quantities of bulk or aggregates, dealing with extreme conditions from soft soil and silt to gravel and rock topography on construction sites or mines. Durability, excellent traction and excellent resistance to stone expansion and heat are critical to operations under these extreme conditions. Continental's MG-Master special tires can be customized to meet these specific needs. This tire has two versions with different tread designs: the EM-Master E3/L3 has a tread depth in the normal range and the block spacing is wide; the EM-Master E4/L4 has a larger rubber block and a larger block spacing. small. As a result, tires provide high levels of carcass protection and good expansion tolerance, minimizing the risk of punctures and downtime. The pentagon block design allows for smaller tread block spacing for smooth running and good traction even on hard and rocky surfaces. Thanks to its deep tread design and high wear resistance, the EM-Master E4/L4 also has an extremely long service life. EM-Master E4/L4 size types: 23.5R25, 26.5R25 and 29.5R25.

Thanks to its deep pattern design and high wear resistance, the EM E4/L4 offers a good service life.

“For the construction vehicle industry, factors such as the ruggedness, precision of operation and efficiency of the vehicle are essential. We offer a comprehensive product portfolio combined with digital and automation technologies to a higher level.” Continental Engineering Pierre Pomper, Head of Vehicle Owners, explains the potential of the growing engineering vehicle industry.
