The construction machinery market continues to undergo many exciting changes, including major consolidations, advancements in technology and strong competition. Emission regulations, that challenged the on-highway sectors for years, are now impacting engine technology and operating practices used in the off-highway equipment sector. Stricter requirements in the United States, Europe and throughout the rest of the world will have a far-reaching impact on the technology, product lines and manufacturers.
