Liebherr expands digital integration with Unicontrol on G8 crawler dozer

Liebherr PR 716–756 G8 crawler dozers are now compatible with Unicontrol 3D machine control for precise, automated grading
Seamless integration enhances efficiency and productivity on construction sites
Combines robust dozer performance with intuitive, operator-friendly digital technology

Liebherr‘s Generation 8 crawler dozers can now be connected to Unicontrol machine control systems via Liebherr Unicontrol Easy Link. This integration enables contractors and equipment distributors to equip Liebherr dozers with blade mounted GPS/GNSS 3D control systems, combining Liebherr’s robust machine performance with Unicontrol’s intuitive, operator-friendly technology.

Liebherr crawler dozers have always been characterized by maximum compatibility with established machine control systems. With the introduction of Liebherr Unicontrol Easy Link, customers can now benefit from the proven reliability of Liebherr machines alongside Unicontrol’s agile and accessible 3D control systems, offering a flexible solution for automated grading precision.

Availability and Implementation

The connection through Liebherr Unicontrol Easy Link is available for both new machines and as a retrofit for already delivered G8 crawler dozers in the mentioned size classes. Integration requires activation of the corresponding software interface in the machine control system, a simple and direct electrical connection to the Unicontrol system, and preparation of the cab to accommodate the Unicontrol display.

Unicontrol, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Odense, Denmark, develops modern GPS/GNSS-based 3D control systems for construction machinery. Its solutions are primarily sold in Europe, North America, and Australia, with particular recognition in Scandinavia.

“Unicontrol is now a direct option for those looking to activate automatic grade control on their Liebherr machines,” said Martin Kirkmand, Product Development Director at Unicontrol. “It’s a significant step that reflects the industry’s move toward more accessible, flexible technology that works the way contractors need it to.”
