Focus on assistance systems: 5 intelligent solutions which make everyday work with a wheel loader much easier

From safety to comfort to efficiency: these five examples of smart technologies make working with wheel loaders more efficient, comfortable and safe. Discover the benefits and see how easy and pleasant working with these intelligent helpers can be. With the innovative Liebherr assistance systems, the wheel loaders are prepared for any task.

Active personnel detection ensures greater safety and productivity at the workplace.

1. Active personnel detection

Four eyes are better than two! Active personnel detection monitors the area behind the wheel loader. It warns of dangers with a signal tone and a symbol on the display. As soon as the sensors detect a source of danger, the brake assistant automatically slows down the speed of the wheel loader, further reducing the frequency and intensity of potential accidents.

Joystick steering provides intuitive and precise control.

2. Joystick steering and operator’s cab without steering wheel

Precise and simple! Joystick steering allows accurate control and easy handling. The position of the joystick always corresponds to the respective articulation angle of the wheel loader. The variant with joystick steering only provides best view and generous space as there is no steering wheel and column in the cab.

Optimal illumination thanks to adaptive working lighting.

3. Adaptive working lighting

Optimal lighting at all times! This intelligent lighting system automatically adjusts to the position of the lift arms, working attachment and wheel loader articulation angle. This reduces glare, reflections and shadows for operators when working in twilight or at night.

The weighing system with Truck Payload Assist ensures precise, efficient and machine-friendly loading.

4. Weighing system with Truck Payload Assist

Efficient loading! The weighing system is a checkweigher that provides the driver with valuable information about the loading process during operation. For example, the associated Truck Payload Assist calculates the optimal bucket fill and the number of loading cycles for an even loading process. This protects the machine, saves time and ensures precise and efficient loading.

Various automatic functions increase productivity and efficiency.

5. Automatic functions

Automatic and practical – the optional and individually available assistants speed up work cycles, leading to more efficient and productive operation. Here are some of the most important ones:

Bucket tilt assistant: Helps when tipping out sticky materials and ensures even distribution.

Stroke limit damping: Reduces shocks and protects machine parts by gently approaching the limit.

Programmable bucket return-to-dig: Automatically returns the bucket and speeds up work cycles.

Auto lifting and lowering: Automatically positions the bucket and lift arms for maximum productivity.
