Industry leader Eti Maden confirms lower fuel consumption thanks to the hydrostatic drive; Liebherr PR 766 Crawler Dozer offers efficiency and reliability in mining operations.
As Turkey's biggest mining company, Eti Maden is at the forefront of the boron industry. Seventy per cent of the world’s boron reserves are found in Turkey. The mineral is used in many areas of industry, particularly glass and ceramics manufacture, as it boosts strength, stability and heat resistance. It is also used in agriculture for fertilisation and the electronics industry for semiconductor production. Eti Maden’s leading role in the extraction and processing of this strategically crucial raw material boosts Turkey’s national economy and has a major impact on the global boron market. Constantly investing in research and development and using cutting-edge machinery, Eti Maden is setting benchmarks in the mining sector.
The Liebherr PR 766 plays a key role at the massive mine in Kirka, Turkey, one of the company's key operating locations. Here, dozer drivers mostly use the machine for local transport of materials. The mining company uses four of these innovative Liebherr machines in total in different mines across the country. The mining industry sets high standards for productivity and reliability in machinery. The PR 766 more than meets these requirements. Its components are specially designed by Liebherr for tough working conditions.
Liebherr Crawler Dozers offer remarkably high efficiency and optimum performance. The machines’ hydrostatic drives are particularly worth noting. They offer a fuel advantage of 10% in comparison with conventional drives, as head of Kirka mine operations Yalçın Sakarya confirms. This reduces operating costs and helps make mining operations more sustainable. The hydrostatic drive also enables efficient operation even at lower speeds, lengthening the service life of the engine and other components. Machine operators at Eti Maden are highly satisfied with the Liebherr Crawler Dozers’ performance.
The PR 766 offers major added value thanks to its versatility in extraction and mine maintenance. It offers precise control and perfect all-round visibility – ideal conditions for safe route maintenance. The robust, easy-maintenance design ensures they meet tough requirements for mining while keeping operating costs low to boot. This, combined with the powerful capability to tear apart tough stone layers, makes the PR 766 an indispensable tool in mining operations.
