bauma 2016 in München: Superlative for heavy machinery
Bauma in Munich, the industry leader among trade fairs for construction machinery, excavators, agricultural machinery etc., ended a week ago. And again, it impressed the experts and interested visitors with innovations from the construction and mining industries. Altogether 3,423 exhibitors presented themselves and their exhibits to about 580,000 visitors from 200 countries.
