Liugong unveils electric wheel loader at bauma CONEXPO

2023-02-21

Liugong India, a leading manufacturer of construction and heavy machinery, announced its foray into the electric wheel loader at bauma CONEXPO India, held in Greater Noida. Liugong has introduced a battery-powered wheel loader 856HEMax– delivering all the benefits of electric power and zero emissions without sacrificing performance. The 5.8 tonne payload capacity machine was unveiled by Shri Nitin Gadkari, Minister of Road Transport and Highways of India.

With this low-maintenance, battery-powered wheel loader, LiuGong continues to bring leading innovations to the construction equipment industry. Speaking on the launch Nischal Mehrotra, Vice President (Sales & Marketing) said. “Quiet and emissions-free, 856HEMax offers more solutions for today’s diverse job sites.”?

856HEMax Features state-of-the-art, lithium-ion battery technology, the Liugong battery-powered wheel loader offers equal to or greater performance than their diesel-powered equivalents. The battery systems deliver high-energy density, and long service life and require no routine maintenance. They provide about eight hours of continuous runtime and require just 70 minutes for a full charge.

With zero emissions, the machine supports environmentally sensitive worksites and allow users to operate where diesel exhaust is restricted. The excavators feature an electric power system that contributes to an exceptional operator experience with drastically reduced noise and vibration, which both operators and job site bystanders will appreciate. Because they are quiet, this wheel loader can be operated at all hours of the day, even in dense urban areas where noise can limit work hours.??

The electric power needed to recharge the batteries costs a fraction of diesel, and these highly efficient wheel loaders are built with fewer parts and fluids, which significantly reduces maintenance and repair costs, as well as work time lost to maintenance and repairs.??The battery management system protects lithium-ion batteries, extends battery life, and optimizes power usage for highly efficient operations. This system monitors the batteries and will shut down the wheel loader to prevent damage to the batteries.?
