Cargotec to build a Euro 35 million Technology and Competence Centre in Tampere, Finland.
The centre will take three years to construct (2011 to 2013) and will focus on energy efficiency technologies and the intelligent use of machine. There will also be an extensive test and simulation area where automated equipment, navigation systems and remote steering and control will be tested. Source: www.cargotec.com

Precision Forestry in Advance Symposium – South Australia - 27 to 28 March 2012.
The symposium will take place at Mount Gambier during AusTimber 2012. The symposium has a strong forest engineering flavour, with sessions that include log transport planning, modelling harvester productivity, cost comparisons between infield chipping and cut-to-length operations, and planning and monitoring systems to control wood supply chains.
