Recently, LiuGong's T-series loaders have once again reached a milestone — the first batch of large hybrid wheel loaders, the 8100TE, has officially been delivered in volume to a benchmark customer in the port industry. This large international port in northern China, a long-term strategic partner of LiuGong, has cumulatively purchased nearly 100 units of LiuGong's full range of port equipment, including large loaders and excavators. The addition of the 8100TE hybrid loader will further strengthen its leading advantages in green, efficient, and sustainable operations.

A strong alliance building a new ecosystem for port equipment

As a key national logistics hub, the port's business needs cover a variety of high-intensity operation scenarios, including dry bulk cargo hold cleaning for vessels up to 200,000 DWT, bulk cargo stockyard stacking, and loading and transfer, placing extremely high demands on equipment reliability, durability, and overall cost-effectiveness.

For many years, LiuGong has become the preferred brand for the customer's port engineering machinery procurement, thanks to solid product performance and full life-cycle services. The batch delivery of the 8100TE hybrid loaders is another important practice by both parties in promoting port equipment upgrading under the "dual carbon" goals.

Customer trust stems from long-term cooperation. "We chose LiuGong based on the repeated verification of its products' long-term working performance in port scenarios," said the port's equipment manager. "LiuGong equipment is not only reliable and durable but also continues to lead in energy-saving technology. The deployment of these hybrid loaders will further reduce our operating costs and accelerate the building of a green port."

Hybrid technology empowers breakthroughs in both efficiency and economy

Targeting the intermittent high-load conditions that occur in port hold cleaning and stacking, LiuGong's 8100TE innovatively applies hybrid technology, achieving three core breakthroughs:          

10% efficiency improvement

The hybrid system intelligently regulates power output, significantly reducing energy losses in operations with frequent starts and stops and shortening work cycle times;     

Significant TCO optimization

Compared with conventional models of the same tonnage, the total cost of ownership (TCO) over the full life cycle is reduced by 30%, with a single machine saving more than 300,000 yuan per year in energy and maintenance costs;

Further upgraded reliability and durability

Core components are strengthened for high-intensity port conditions, ensuring stable operation in extreme environments such as high temperatures, salt spray, and high humidity, with a significantly lower failure rate;

Whether for port handling or mining, choosing LiuGong's 8100TE delivers smarter, more efficient, and safer construction results.

This batch delivery to the port customer is a deep implementation of LiuGong's "Green · Intelligent · Full Value Chain" strategy. In the future, LiuGong will continue to focus deeply on scenarios such as ports, mining, and infrastructure, driving the electrification and intelligent upgrading of construction machinery through technological innovation, and providing global customers with lower-carbon, more efficient, and more energy-saving solutions.
