Ecomondo, the Green Technology Expo, took place in Rimini, Italy, from 5th to 8th November. At the event, LiuGong showcased a range of five machines: the 820TE and 856HE battery electric vehicle (BEV) wheel loaders, along with three fuel-efficient machines suited for the recycling sector (the TD-16N dozer, 856T wheel loader, and 924F DM HRC excavator).
“With our expertise in BEV and comprehensive recycling solutions, we demonstrated how LiuGong is leading the way in the eco transition. At our stand, we displayed a range of BEV machines and fuel-efficient diesel models for customers to explore, highlighting our commitment to providing solutions that align with the industry’s growing focus on sustainability.“
said Fabio Marlia, Country Manager for Italy at LiuGong Europe.
China leads the world in BEV technology and LiuGong is a leader in China. The 820TE and 856HE are part of LiuGong’s rapidly expanding line-up of BEV machines which will total 40 models by 2027. These premium machines ensure top-class performance with zero emissions and significantly reduce the total cost of ownership. With their distinctive green livery, they share LiuGong’s Red Dot Award-winning design DNA and underline LiuGong’s commitment to building a sustainable future through leadership in the electric vehicle segment.
820TE Compact Electric Wheel Loader
LiuGong’s first compact electric wheel loader, the 820TE, features a spacious cabin, can reach travel speeds of up to 40 kph, and is powered by a 70-kWh battery. This machine delivers 6 hours between charges and can recharge within 80 mins. At a maximum height of 2.5m, and available with a 4th line auxiliary spool, the 820TE is excellent for numerous industrial applications.
856HE Mid-Class Electric Wheel Loader
A mid-class wheel loader, the 856HE is powered by a 423-kWh battery pack, and can work 10-12-hour shifts on a single charge, and fully recharge in just 90 mins. Driven by two independent motors, one for the driving transmission and one for the hydraulic loader arms and auxiliary, the 856HE is a tough machine offering full drive traction from as little as 2km/h.
924F DM HRC Excavator
The 924F DM HRC is designed for optimal jobsite efficiency and durability. Supplied from the factory to leading demolition companies across Europe, the 924F DM HRC has proven itself as a credible, hardworking demolition machine. This popular machine is now available with a factory-built high-rise cabin, as displayed at Ecomondo, and an optional gooseneck dig end for scrap handling applications. Built with a reinforced chassis and heavy-duty components, the 924F DM HRC is a tough, reliable machine built for the highest uptime.
856T Wheel Loader
The new 856T is designed for exceptional operator control, attachment performance, efficiency and operator comfort, its innovative new cab design enhances safety, visibility, and performance, making it ideal for demanding environments. To further improve the operator’s experience the new cab includes a 10-inch touchscreen display and customisable loader tuning functions. To maximise uptime, the 856T’s fuel tank has been increased by 20% extending operation time and boosting productivity by reducing refuelling stops.
TD-16N Crawler Dozer
Adding to this leading line-up is Dressta’s award-winning TD-16N crawler dozer. This machine is the recipient of the prestigious Red Dot Award. This revolutionary dozer gives operators uninterrupted views of the jobsite, blade, ripper, and tracks and takes visibility to a new dimension. With innovative 3-step access operators no longer have to risk climbing on the tracks to enter and exit the machine, safety is further improved with ground access to all service and refuelling points.
