Liebherr crawler dozers have always been characterized by maximum compatibility with established machine control systems.

With the introduction of Liebherr Unicontrol Easy Link, customers can now benefit from the reliability of Liebherr machines alongside Unicontrol's 3D control systems, offering a flexible solution for automated grading precision.

Availability, Implementation

The connection through Liebherr Unicontrol Easy Link is available for both new machines and as a retrofit for already delivered G8 crawler dozers in the mentioned size classes. Integration requires activation of the corresponding software interface in the machine control system, a simple and direct electrical connection to the Unicontrol system and preparation of the cab to accommodate the Unicontrol display.

Unicontrol, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Odense, Denmark, develops modern GPS/GNSS-based 3D control systems for construction machinery. Its solutions are primarily sold in Europe, North America and Australia, with particular recognition in Scandinavia.

"Unicontrol is now a direct option for those looking to activate automatic grade control on their Liebherr machines," said Martin Kirkmand, product development director of Unicontrol. "It's a significant step that reflects the industry's move toward more accessible, flexible technology that works the way contractors need it to."
