In industrial applications, Liebherr wheel loaders often work with large attachments, high-dump buckets for example, when handling lighter goods such as wood chips, paper or waste. Because large buckets can obstruct the driver's field of vision, Liebherr offers L 526 to L 586 XPower wheel loaders with a roof camera for front area monitoring. The roof camera provides a view of the bucket in front of the machine from a significantly elevated perspective and transmits the image on a separate display in the operator's cab. Front area monitoring is therefore used for seeing people or objects hidden by the attachment, which increases safety when accelerating, driving forward and loading with large buckets.
The Skyview 360° camera system is an intelligent assistance system that enables the machine operator to recognize potential hazards. As four additional cameras capture the machine’s entire surroundings, it provides a 360° view of the wheel loader’s immediate vicinity at all times. The system merges the individual images into a virtual bird's-eye view and shows this image on a separate display in the operator’s cab. With this perspective, the operator can see blind spots and danger zones, such as the wheel loader's articulation area, and avoid possible collisions.
