Liebherr’s HS 8300 HD, the world’s largest duty cycle crawler crane, recently had its premiere on a jobsite in Bavaria. It is the first Liebherr crane for the construction machinery market to be equipped with the innovative hybrid drive Pactronic®.

Since the end of 2014 the company Wanner & Märker has been using the new duty cycle crawler crane for gravel excavation in one of their three quarries. The jobsite is located in the South of Germany, close to the city of Ingolstadt.

The proportions are remarkable. The machine, with an entire weight of more than 350 tonnes, operates on the site with a 44 m long main boom and a dragline bucket made by Rädlinger. The digging depth is approximately 26 m, the unloading height about 15 m.

The HS 8300 HD is the first construction machine on the market to be equipped with the Pactronic® system developed by Liebherr. This innovative hybrid drive based on hydraulics offers both economic and ecological advantages. Surplus energy is stored and subsequently regenerated so increasing the material handling capacity while at the same time significantly reducing fuel consumption.

Apart from dragline operation the HS 8300 HD is suitable for various other material handling jobs. The machine can, for instance, also be equipped with an orange-peel grab and a clamshell.
