LeTourneau Inc, the
Longview, Texas-based company, employs SR Drive® technology
in its latest 50 Series ‘digital’ loaders. The
L-1350 electric-wheel loader is the first machine of
its type to be fitted with SR Drive® systems that
provide independent traction for each wheel.
LeTourneau invented the electric-drive
wheel loader more than forty years ago, and has been
refining the concept ever since. Today, its range
of loaders represents the industry standard and includes
the largest front-end loader in
the world. The L-1350 stands 6 metres high from
ground to cab roof and more than 16 metres long. It
weighs over 180 tonnes and its 21m³ rock bucket handles
a 38 tonne payload. |
