Liebherr’s MyAssistant for Earthmoving is a new app that provides all relevant information about earthmoving and material handling machines in a digital format. The app pulls contextual data from databases around the globe to provide operational and maintenance information. With several features bundled into one, it aims to provide value for machine operators.
The mobile application is available for wheeled excavators, material handling machines, and wheel loaders of generation 6.0 and higher as well as for crawler excavators, graders and crawler loaders, pipelayers, and articulated trucks of generation 8.0 and higher. The new mobile app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.
After successful authentication via the MyLiebherr portal, the full range of features is available to the user. Once logged in, MyLiebherr makes all Liebherr earthmoving and material handling machines in the company’s fleet available to the user via a drop-down menu. The machines can then be selected via the model designation and serial number. The resulting menu tiles “Operating instructions,” “Spare parts catalogue,” and “Scan operating symbol” that are displayed in the app refer exclusively to the machine selected by the user.
In addition, the entire Liebherr operator’s manual is available to the user digitally via the app. Furthermore, any required spare parts can be selected in the menu tile of the same name and placed in the shopping cart. Depending on the user’s authorization level in MyLiebherr, an order can then be triggered.
The function “Scan operating symbol” can be used to identify unknown symbols on operating panels, keyboards, switches, and the control panel in the cab. The user can simply scan the symbol using their smartphone camera. Following a successful match in the symbol database, the user is shown the suggested solutions that fit the context as well as corresponding links to the Liebherr operator’s manual. This quick analysis helps save the machine operator time and increases safety during daily operations on the construction site. Liebherr says that machine operators whose companies have a large fleet of machines that undergoes frequent changes, as well as newcomers to the profession and inexperienced machine operators, will find this feature useful.
