  • Session A: Hoisting and Conveying Equipment and Technologies
  • Session B: Construction and Mining Equipment and Technologies
  • Session C: Logistics and Intralogistics Systems
  • Session D: Constructions and Design Engineering
  • Session E: Maritime and Port Logistics

The purpose of these conferences is to share research accomplishments, projects and trends in the field of material handling equipment and conveying technologies, construction and mining equipment, logistics and intralogistics systems including port and maritime logistics, constructions and design engineering. It intends to facilitate dialog and collaborative research by teams of university researchers on leading edge topics of interest to end users as well as technology and solutions providers.

The main objective of these conferences is to be a forum to exchange views, opinions and experience on MHCL from technical viewpoints in order to track the current achievements, but also to look at to future developments.
