Looking to the future of construction, DEVELON demonstrates its newest innovations. DEVELON, formerly known as Doosan construction equipment, demonstrated its commitment to the future of construction sites with updates to its Concept-X and XiteCloud smart construction platform during CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023.

Develon booth at CONEXPO

Concept-X was unveiled in 2019 as the world’s first automated construction solution. At a demonstration of Concept-X in Korea, attendees witnessed autonomous construction equipment performing everyday jobsite tasks.

DEVELON is unveiling the latest developments to the technology-based solution in an updated version called Concept-X2. The newest iteration of the solution includes the following updates:

• New dozer added to autonomous equipment lineup
• Autonomous driving and blade control based on global navigation satellite system (GNSS)
• Automated 3D grading with tiltrotator accessory
• Enhanced machine-learning-based auto digging and loading
• Integrated work planning algorithm applied
• Advanced E-Stop safety technology

The Concept-X2 autonomous construction equipment in the DEVELON booth includes the DD100-CX dozer and DX225-CX crawler excavator. Both machines feature a new cabinless design and a linear core design language. Three times a day, a live demonstration of the autonomous construction equipment will take place in the “demo pit” in the DEVELON booth.

XiteCloud Smart Construction Solution

As part of the innovation area of the DEVELON booth, the company will promote the latest developments of its all-in-one smart construction platform: XiteCloud.

With XiteCloud solutions, a customer can manage multiple tasks such as surveys, terrain analysis, machine purchases, equipment operation and construction management on a single platform, thereby reducing construction costs and saving time while increasing work accuracy, which in turn raises productivity. XiteCloud also allows customers to manage multiple projects on a single platform, accumulating and managing data that can be utilized for future decision making/business.

The advanced automation technology is commercializing in phases. Customers can digitize their construction site with innovative management, field and safety solutions. A range of new solutions that form part of the XiteCloud system cover many aspects of construction management. These include:

• XiteFleet
• XiteAuto
• XiteAnalyst
• XiteSafety

XiteFleet provides real-time fleet monitoring with location tracking and operation monitoring. XiteAuto commercializes the current and future technology that DEVELON is developing from 3D machine guidance to automation. XiteAnalyst is a digital twin-based earthwork analysis/management solution. XiteSafety offers safety management, including preventing collisions between construction equipment and workers.
