bauma CHINA 2024, the world’s leading machinery event, returned to Shanghai on November 26 after a four-year break, attracting over 3,500 companies from 32 countries. XCMG marked a strong comeback, showcasing advanced solutions at its expansive 12,000-square-meter booth, reinforcing its leadership and innovation in the industry.
bauma, founded in Germany in 1954, has become a global benchmark for construction machinery. XCMG’s journey with bauma began in 1992 when it became the first Chinese company to participate in bauma Germany with a 9-square-meter booth. By 1998, XCMG expanded to a 60-square-meter booth, marking the start of a lasting partnership that fueled its growth and innovation.
Today, XCMG is a global leader, showcasing cutting-edge technologies and the strength of "Made in China." After four years of preparation and 26 days of intense construction, XCMG’s bauma CHINA booth unveiled 110 machines across 9 categories and 73 core components and featured 7 construction scenes, Wandering Earth IP scenes, and the "Digital Space Station." These highlights emphasize XCMG’s transformation into a high-end, intelligent, green, service-oriented, international company.
With the theme "Smart XCMG Empower Solid Future" XCMG reaffirms its leadership in the global construction machinery industry.
