This is not a trade show for the faint hearted, casual, tire-kicking type of crowd. If you're attending CON-EXPO 2026, taking on the cost and time required to see the largest show room floor space in North America, then you don't want to waste a lot of your visit wandering around trying to find what you're really looking for.
We reached out to some of the largest and most in-demand manufacturers in the asphalt and road building industry, to try and help you have a head start on what to go see when the flood gates open on March 3. Of course, we will be there too, so make sure to stop by North Hall — N12463 and meet the team behind Asphalt Contractor. You might even see me there, catching my breath between booth visits!
BOMAG (Central Hall, C30932)
BOMAG
Next Generation Paving
The BOMAG exhibit includes the latest advancements in highway class pavers. The CR Series paver on display delivers intuitive paver and screed operation with its updated human-machine interface (HMI) featuring grouped functions for both the paver and screed control panels. A large, 7-in (177.8-mm) multifunction color screen display at each console includes the latest operating system program. This allows operators to make quick paver setting changes and view critical functions and gauges using either the touchscreen display or dial control.
The paver features a sloped engine hood design to provide a clear view into the hopper from the operator’s seat. Sound-insulated, the hood helps to deliver quieter paving to improve worker comfort. Dual swing-out operator stations boast BOMAG’s SIDEVIEW innovation in which both the seat and console swivel outward at different angles to deliver unobstructed views to the paver’s side and screed spreading augers.
BOMAG
Technology
The rollers on display will show BOMAG’s 360˚ compaction technology, including conventional vibration, oscillation and exclusive directed/vectoring vibration. The BW 161 ADO-5 heavy tandem roller features BOMAG’s TanGO tangential oscillation, which uses an optimized oscillation amplitude that allows the drum to remain in constant contact with the mat. This technology is ideal for compacting joints, thin layers and bridges. TanGO provides a gentle compaction effect that minimizes the risk of aggregate crushing and eliminates bow waves, even at higher rolling speeds.
The displayed BW 191 AD-5 AM roller features BOMAG’s exclusive ASPHALT MANAGER technology. Pioneered by BOMAG, ASPHALT MANAGER controls compaction by adjusting the direction of vibration, rather than relying on constant operator-selected amplitude changes. Easy to operate, the system requires only mix type and lift thickness to be entered by the operator. As material stiffness increases during compaction, the vibration vector is automatically adjusted from predominantly vertical toward a more horizontal orientation, optimizing energy transfer and helping to prevent over-compaction. These flexible rollers can effectively replace multiple traditional compaction setups in one machine, and the vibration direction automatically reverses with travel direction, helping eliminate the bow wave effect.
Additionally, BOMAG team members will have details on the latest updates to the BOMAP smart compaction control technology. Offering transparent and real-time compaction control, BOMAP allows operators to monitor soil and asphalt compaction results, regardless of the roller manufacturer. This allows operators to immediately see where the material has been optimally compacted or where further passes are required. Once the app is installed on a mobile device, it’s immediately ready for use. In its base version, BOMAP uses the mobile device’s internal GPS to detect roller positioning to simplify surface covering compaction control. Alternatively, an external GPS receiver can be connected to the mobile device to more accurately detect roller positioning and tracking
BOMAG
Pneumatic Rollers
The exhibit will also include details about the BW 18 RH pneumatic tire roller. The displayed machine will include wrapped decaling showing both the BW 18 RH and BW 28 RH, giving insight into the flexibility of machine design. Built as a BW 18 RH, this 8-tire pneumatic roller has a maximum operating weight of 39,683 lb (18,000 kg) and a maximum wheel load reaching 4,960 lb (2,250 kg). Powered by the 74.2 hp (55.3 kW) Deutz TCD 2.9L4 HT engine, the BW 18 RH doesn’t require diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) to meet emissions standards and offers a maximum travel speed of 9.9 mph (15.9 kmph). Offering an 80.4-in (2,042-mm) rolling width, this roller delivers excellent compaction results on chip-and-seal and finish and intermediate rolling applications.
Volvo CE (Festival Grounds - F24029)
Volvo CE
Volvo EWR170 Wheeled Excavator
The fully updated EWR170 brings a refreshed design and improved capabilities to the medium size class. It’s a short-swing model, optimized for confined spaces with an industry-leading tail swing radius and a front swing radius that’s nearly two feet shorter than its predecessor’s.
A never-before-seen feature that operators will love is an electronically retractable access ladder that swings down from a recess in the side of the machine for safer, easier cab entry and exit. With this patented technology, the machine cannot swing or move while the ladder is in the down position.
The revamped EWR170 wheeled excavator has wider lift cylinders for more lifting capacity over the front of the machine and a longer two-piece boom for added reach. Four-wheel steering will be available as an option later this year, which is an industry first for this class and dramatically reduces turn radius.
Volvo CE
For hydraulic attachments, the X1 and X3 auxiliary lines are now larger to reduce pressure losses, and flow on the X3 has increased from 18.5 to 31.7 gallons/minute, providing the pressure needed to operate a tiltrotator. A third line (X4) is optional.
An integrated rearview camera and right-side camera improve visibility, as does the optional Volvo Smart View with a high-definition, 360-degree real-time view of machine surroundings. For peace of mind, the frame, boom and arm are backed by the Volvo Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty for the entire initial ownership period.
The EWR170’s redesigned cab provides an excellent operator experience with low noise levels, ergonomic controls, more storage options, wireless phone charging, USB connections, automatic in-cab lights and an optional air compressor for cleaning. Comfort can be tailored even further with more seat and joystick options and electronically adjustable heated side mirrors.
