Liebherr T 236 working at the Erzberg, Austria.

Munich (Germany), 8. April 2019 – With a strong expertise in electrical machines, Liebherr presents a duo of machines fitted to meet the requirements of the mines of the future at Bauma 2019: the R 9200 E and the T 236. When working together, the R 9200 E and T 236 reduce the environmental footprint of any mining operation. The R 9200 E in face shovel configuration can easily fill a T 236 in five passes, a perfect combination for scalable productivity.

Capitalizing on proven experience in Off–Highway-Truck technologies, the T 236 takes advantage of Liebherr’s electric drive system innovations with the introduction of the vertically integrated Litronic Plus Generation 2 AC drive system.

Since the first presentation of the concept to the public at MINExpo 2016 in Las Vegas, the T 236 has successfully completed its testing phase and is today operating at the Erzberg Iron mine in Austria and another unit started its operation in South Africa.
