On the evening of Wednesday, April 9th, Jekko hosted a lively dealer party at its Bauma stand (FS 903/6), bringing together its global dealer network for a memorable celebration. It was a great opportunity to reconnect with partners, share a drink, and enjoy authentic Italian cuisine prepared by Le Troi Chefs, all in the stunning night-time atmosphere of the illuminated Jekko stand. With nearly 200 guests attending from around the world, the evening showcased the strong sense of community within the Jekko family.“We were thrilled by the incredible turnout,” said Alberto Franceschini, Jekko Sales Director.“Events like these go beyond business—they’re about sharing values, reinforcing trust, and making our network stronger than ever.” Jekko extends a heartfelt thank you to all its dealers operating worldwide for their continued trust, commitment, and collaboration.

We are delighted to share that the MAXX – Mobile Assembly X-System project has been awarded the prestigious Bauma Innovation Award 2025 in the Research category. This innovative project is a collaborative effort between Construction Robotics GmbH of RWTH Aachen University, Jekko, KUKA, and Fundermax.​ MAXX introduces a groundbreaking approach to construction automation by implementing a plug & produce system for semi-automated, scaffold-free assembly in building refurbishment. The system comprises a lifting platform positioned on the façade using a cable-driven mechanism, facilitated by a mobile Jekko crane. A KUKA robot, equipped with a specialized multi-sensor system, precisely positions Fundermax façade panels, which are transported via an integrated magazine on the platform, and attaches them to the substructure. ​ A notable feature of MAXX is its fully automated robot-crane collaboration. The KUKA robot communicates directly with the Jekko crane via 5G, controlling its movements to lift the platform to the next position in the installation process. This seamless interaction eliminates the need for manual control or programming by the operator, allowing them to focus on quality and safety checks. We invite all attendees of Bauma 2025 to witness MAXX in action. Live demonstrations are being held twice daily at 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM at our Jekko stand FS 903/6, from April 7 to 13. This is an excellent opportunity to experience firsthand how MAXX is set to transform the construction industry by enhancing efficiency, safety, and sustainability on job sites.​ Join us to explore the future of construction technology and celebrate this remarkable achievement with us.
