Conexpo 2026 Returns to Las Vegas
Las Vegas will once again take centre stage for the global construction machinery sector when Conexpo 2026 runs from March 3 to 7, attracting industry professionals from across the Americas.
Recognised as one of the most influential trade shows on the continent, Conexpo serves not only the U.S. market but also plays a key role for North, Central, and South America, bringing together decision-makers, regional requirements, technical standards, and product innovation under one roof.
Goldhofer Strengthens Market Presence in the Americas
For Goldhofer, Conexpo 2026 represents a strategic opportunity to strengthen its footprint across the American market.
David Weinmann, CEO of Goldhofer Inc., said the exhibition provides more than product visibility, enabling direct engagement with customers to better understand operational challenges, present practical solutions, and reinforce confidence in the performance and reliability of Goldhofer equipment.
PST/SL-E Split with Widening System
A major highlight on Goldhofer’s stand will be the PST/SL-E split with Widening System, first introduced at bauma 2025.
Key features include:
Axle load: up to 99,000 lbs
Variable width: from 10 feet to 17 feet, extendable to 22 feet
Designed for transporting particularly high loads with maximum adaptability
Supporting the system is the new E-PowerPack, delivering a rated output of 250 kW (approximately 340 hp), underlining advances in modern drive technology for power and endurance.
Goldhofer’s updated operating concept incorporates a modern remote control, ultra-bright LED display, and integrated inclinometer, reflecting extensive customer feedback and enhancing precision during transport operations.
Heavy Load Capability with PST/ES-E (315)
Another key exhibit for the heavy haul segment is the PST/ES-E (315) modular transporter.
The system offers:
Axle loads up to 132,300 lbs on air-inflated tyres
No requirement for TPMS
Fewer axle lines needed for extreme loads
No mileage restrictions
Its 8-foot-wide heavy-duty design also allows for cost-efficient transport in flat racks, delivering logistical and economic benefits for operators.
U.S.-Focused Transport Solutions
Tailored specifically for the U.S. market, Goldhofer will also present the THP/DC, one of the most widely used heavy-duty modules in North America.
The system is valued for its road flexibility, allowing operators to adjust vehicle width between 14 and 20 feet while rolling under load, helping ensure compliance with varying state and regional transport regulations.
Proven Semi Low Loader Design
Completing Goldhofer’s Conexpo 2026 lineup is the STZ-H 6 semi low loader, a long-established model in the North American market.
The trailer features:
A modern steering system with radio remote override
Smooth manoeuvrability in tight jobsite environments
Telescopic functionality for rapid adaptation to different cargo requirements
Its combination of flexibility, stability, and premium build quality has made it a reliable solution for transport companies across the region.
