The world’s first use of 3-D printed steel in an excavator will be on show at the CONEXPO-CON/AGG and IFPE exhibition in Las Vegas next year, according to the organisers. The excavator will be designed by engineering students and constructed – in a process known as additive manufacturing – for the event 2017 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, from March 7-11, 2017.

The international CONEXPO-CON/AGG construction industries exhibition captured the lead spot in the just-released “Top 250” trade show ranking of North American-based expositions. The Trade Show News Network (TSSN) compiles the annual list, based on net square feet of exhibit space. CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2014 - held every three years in Las Vegas and lastly in 2014 - won the top ranking for its record show space of more than 2.35 million net square feet. “We are honoured to receive this recognition,” said Megan
