T 284

The last word in productivity

The Liebherr T 284 mining truck is the successor of Liebherr’s popular T 282 C. It continues to be the lightest and most capable ultra-class mining truck that also happens to reduce fuel consumption on site, helping customers to meet production targets with fewer trucks, or in less time.

  • Payload class - 363.00 t

  • Gross vehicle weight (GVW) - 605.00 t

  • Gross power - 2,720 kW

T 284 highlights:

Lower cost per tonne

The T 284 is the lightest truck with the highest payload in the 360-tonne class, lowering cost per tonne on every load.

Advanced technology

The T 284 has years of experience connecting with Liebherr’s trolley solutions in multiple mine sites all over the world, providing field data that proves the effectiveness of these solutions for meeting customers’ decarbonisation targets. These solutions are available at first fit or can be retrofitted.

Proven reliability

The T 284 has over 2.1 million hours of operating experience showcasing its durability in a wide range of climates and mining applications.

Innovative design and technologies powering the T 284

User-centric design

Everything about the T 284 has been designed for ultimate operator comfort, even in the most extreme conditions. Its integrated HVAC system maintains a pleasant temperature within the cabin, even in extreme heat or freezing cold, while the cab’s pressurisation prevents dust penetration while keeping operators comfortable at high altitudes. Plus, the unique double A-arm frame provides a smooth ride by keeping vibrations at a minimum.

Easy maintenance

The T 284 has been operating all over the world for more than 2.1 million hours. In that time, it has demonstrated its mechanical reliability and how easy it is to maintain. The truck is equipped with an integrated telematics system that monitors the machine’s health, performance and location within the mine site, enabling proactive maintenance and efficient fleet management.

Litronic Plus AC Drive System

The T 284 has a diesel-electric drive system, called the Litronic Plus AC Drive System, rather than a mechanical drive system. It was designed, developed and built by Liebherr to maximise the amount of electrical power converted into mechanical torque for faster truck acceleration and reduced energy consumption.

More power

Because of the AC drive system in the T 284, there’s more power available for accelerating and climbing steep slopes. And combined with the most powerful engine in the 360-tonne class, the T 284’s AC drive system maximises performance.

Less fuel consumption

The Litronic Plus AC Drive System also conserves fuel when the T 284 engine is idling, minimising the amount of fuel consumed by the truck.

Autonomous Haulage Solution

Liebherr’s Autonomous Haulage Solution (AHS) combines cutting-edge automation technology with real insights to enhance productivity, safety and efficiency.

The autonomous platform has been designed with the future in mind and is compatible with both diesel-electric and zero emission energy systems. The AHS can be integrated with the Energy Management System from Liebherr’s Fleet Management System to orchestrate the energy replenishment of Liebherr’s zero emission mining truck.

Dynamic Power Transfer

Liebherr currently offers two different kinds of dynamic power solutions for its mining trucks: the Trolley Assist System and Liebherr Power Rail.

Trolley Assist System

The Trolley Assist System uses an overhead pantograph to connect the trucks’ electric-drive system to the mine’s electrical network, lowering fuel consumption and raising speed on grade.

Liebherr Power Rail

Liebherr Power Rail is a class-agnostic dynamic power concept based on the company’s existing trolley bar technology, utilising a bar mounted on the side of the truck. This solution is designed to be easy to install and to relocate on site.

*Site-specific factors like loose material density, bucket size, fill factors, truck body size and payload capacity will influence pass match. Contact your local Liebherr sales and service company or sales partner for analysis of your site.

The perfect Liebherr pairing

The T 284 is the perfect match for the R 9600 and R 9800 excavator. With these combinations, you can discover the seamless synergy between our cutting-edge excavators and high-performance mining trucks that sets new standards for excellence in the industry.

R 9600

Liebherr’s R 9600 and the T 284 truck form a high-performance partnership for modern mining operations. The R 9600, the leader of the 600-tonne class, offers unmatched productivity with its industry-leading bucket capacity, improved fuel efficiency, and 80,000-hour service life. Combined with the T 284, the most capable and fuel-efficient ultra-class mining truck, this pairing drives superior productivity while helping customers achieve production targets with fewer resources.

R 9800

Liebherr’s R 9800 and the T 284 truck create a powerful combination for ultra-class mining. The R 9800, with its best-in-class payload capacity, modular design, and proven fuel savings through Liebherr Power Efficiency – Engine Control, is built to deliver maximum uptime and productivity. When paired with the lightest and most capable ultra-class truck, the T 284, this duo sets new standards in efficiency, reliability, and cost-effective production.
