Link-Belt Excavators will welcome attendees to Booth F35043 at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2026, where the company will introduce two new excavators, the 245 X4S and 80 X4, designed to deliver improved fuel efficiency, enhanced operator comfort and advanced smart technology.
Reflecting the Here by Hard Work theme, Link-Belt's largest ConExpo exhibit to date will feature a dedicated technology area focused on connectivity, AI and operator training. Two excavator simulators will provide attendees with a hands-on opportunity to experience machine operation and emerging jobsite technologies in an interactive environment.
Link-Belt Excavators also will introduce an expanded Precision Grade 3D offering, providing customers with factory-ready solutions that simplify the installation of advanced machine guidance systems. The Precision Grade platform will support 3D solutions from both Trimble and Topcon, giving customers the flexibility to work with their preferred grade control technology.
In addition to new equipment introductions, the Link-Belt booth will feature several interactive experiences, including the fan-favorite Excavator Showdown and Pink-Belt Charity Auction.
