Liebherr collaborates with Canadian mines to deliver maximum power
“The PR 776 is the biggest hydrostatically driven dozer in the world,” says Jan Schroeder, general sales manager for Liebherr-Canada. “Its powerful Liebherr engine, coupled with its hydrostatic drive, gives our customers by far the best fuel efficiency in the 70-tonne class. This leads to lower operational costs as well as a significant reduction in the amount of greenhouse gases emitted on site.”
“The decision Taseko made to trust Liebherr-Canada and the PR 776 was about a full solution, not just the machine, not just fuel efficiency, and not just customer service. The decision encompassed all of these but was most importantly about who Liebherr is as a company, and the type of business relationship and values that the whole organisation demonstrated to Taseko during the process,” explains Schroeder.
“This new partnership with Taseko is an exciting one for us as we now have the chance to showcase the power of Liebherr mining dozers and the incredible work of our customer support personnel at one of the biggest mines in the country,” adds Tom Juric, divisional director of mining at Liebherr-Canada.
