Liebherr has developed MyAssistant for Earthmoving, an app designed to provide support for construction machinery operators. The mobile application is available for the company’s generation 6.0 and higher wheeled excavators, material handling machines and wheel loaders, as well as for generation 8.0 and higher crawler excavators, graders and crawler loaders, pipelayers and articulated trucks. It can be downloaded free of charge from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
In the app, information about all Liebherr earthmoving and material handling machines in a company’s fleet are available to the user via a drop-down menu. The machines can then be selected via the model designation and serial number.
In addition, the entire Liebherr operator’s manual is also available to users, digitally, via the app. Any required spare parts can be selected in the app, and depending on the user’s authorisation level in MyLiebherr, a corresponding order can then be triggered.
The mobile application features a “Scan operating symbol” function that can be used to identify unknown symbols on operating panels, keyboards and switches, as well as on the control panel in the cab. The user can simply scan the symbol using the camera on their smartphone and following a successful match in the symbol database, the user is shown the suggested solutions that fit the context as well as corresponding links to the Liebherr operator’s manual.
