Komatsu, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of construction and mining machinery, headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, looks back on a 100-year tradition and produces modern construction machinery at its Hanover site.

In collaboration with the EPE’22 ECCE Europe-conference and with the “IEEE Joint IES/IAS/PELS German Chapter Meeting” on the 9^th of September 2022, Komatsu Germany GmbH will welcome a limited number of participants on the traditional, former Hanomag factory site. An insight into its production halls as well as its development activities in the newly built HITeC (Hannover Innovation Technical Center) will be given.

A visit to the test and demo site, which is also located on the factory premises, provides an insight into the testing activities to ensure the durability in operation of the wheeled excavators and compact wheel loaders developed in Hannover.
