Colmar (France), 18 February 2025 – Liebherr will share its latest news, products, services and innovations for the mining industry at this year’s Bauma – the world’s leading construction machinery exhibition – from 7 to 13 April at Messe München in Munich, Germany. Visitors can see the impressive autonomous, battery-electric T 264 mining truck and R 9400 E electric excavator up close during daily live demonstrations and can also discover the latest mining technology and service innovations in the Mining Technology Pavilion.
Autonomous, battery-electric T 264 mining truck: pioneering mining decarbonisation
The autonomous, battery-electric T 264 mining truck not only represents the culmination of years of hard work and the joining together of the autonomy and zero emission arms of the Liebherr–Fortescue partnership but also showcases the value of working hand-in-hand with industry partners. The autonomous, battery-electric T 264 has a 3.2 MW battery, which was developed by Fortescue Zero – Fortescue’s battery technology arm.
The battery-electric truck supports both static and dynamic charging, both of which will be showcased at Bauma. Fortescue’s stationary fast charging solution delivers up to 6 MW of power, enabling the current battery-electric T 264 to charge in 30 minutes. Also on display will be Liebherr Power Rail, a class-agnostic dynamic charging concept based on Liebherr’s proven trolley bar technology.
The truck on display at Bauma will also be equipped with the Autonomy Haulage Solution (AHS) that was developed as part of the Liebherr–Fortescue partnership. Within the AHS is an Energy Management System that coordinates the static recharge assignments for these trucks and ensures the charger is fully utilised without causing queuing on site.
R 9400 E: more than 40 years of E-xperience
The R 9400 E 350-tonne electric excavator will also be on display at this year’s Bauma, showcasing Liebherr’s commitment to decarbonisation. This machine reflects over 40 years of Liebherr’s expertise in electric excavator development and manufacturing while incorporating the latest innovations from the mining product segment. The excavator on display is also equipped with Liebherr’s cable reel solution, which offers up to 300 metres of autonomous cable management to enhance manoeuvrability and ensuring efficient cable management for increased operational flexibility.
Mining Technology Pavilion: more than machines
