Passa Tempo (MG), June 2024 – LiuGong, a global reference in the manufacture of machinery for construction, mining and agriculture, begins na intense cycle of demonstrations of the 856H-E electric loader, which is the first electric equipment presented by the manufacturer in Brazil. The program of these events began on June 13, Thursday, in the city of Passa Tempo (MG) and was hosted by the steel industry, Ferlig, bringing together mining players.
For 30 days, the electric wheel loader worked in Ferlig’s yard, moving industrial dolomitic limestone. “After this period, demonstrating operational excellence, we compiled the main performance indicators of the 856H-E and compared them with similar diesel equipment, which also worked on this movement,” explained LiuGong Product Manager Diego Zolezi.
According to the Product Manager, the 856H-E electric wheel loader recorded a productivity of 493 tons/hour, with a battery life of 8 hours and 1.2 hours of charging. The equipment consumed 38.61 KW/h. In practice, this result translates into fuel savings of up to 3 ratio, in addition to reducing maintenance costs by up to 50%.
“The electrical equipment stands out for the lower operating cost combined with the torque of the motors, which respond quickly with maximum performance in loading and unloading movements. The electrification of fleets is a trend in several sectors, as an option for more sustainable operations with fewer emissions and noise”, analyzes Diego Zolezi.
The 856H-E is equipped with a lithium battery pack manufactured by Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited (CATL), type Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP), which provides 350 kWh of energy storage and fast recharging in just 1.5 hours, depending on electrical installation conditions, enabling up to 10 hours of operation. The 856H-E loader has an operating weight of 19,971 kg and a 3.5 m³ bucket, with a load capacity of up to 5,800 kg.
