  • Liebherr TA 230 as a carrier vehicle can be used multifunctionally depending on the setup
  • Innovative visibility concept for increased safety
  • Maximum performance for demanding applications

It is robust, powerful and flexible: the Liebherr TA 230.

Liebherr presents the TA 230 for the first time as a carrier vehicle specifically for military use at the 7th User Forum on Armament and Utilisation in Koblenz from 3 to 4 September. As a carrier vehicle, this powerful machine is suitable for a wide range of applications. Whether in tough terrain, with military engineering and logistics forces, in civil defence or with national and international authorities – the TA 230 shows its full strength in these areas of application.

The Liebherr TA 230 battles its way through rough terrain with apparent ease. This is hardly surprising, as the powerful drive unit combined with the high-performance engine ensures maximum traction in this difficult hand rail. As a carrier vehicle, the Liebherr dumper is more than just an articulated chassis. The machine impresses with its robust base and high-quality components that are protected during use. In addition, you can rely on proven Liebherr technology, which is highly resistant even under extreme operating conditions.

Its great flexibility makes the TA 230 the ideal machine for a wide variety of superstructures and applications. Depending on the superstructure, a payload of up to 31 tonnes is possible. This high payload for a wide range of military superstructures in particular makes the TA 230 the ideal carrier vehicle for any mission.

Increased safety thanks to innovative visibility concept

The visibility concept of the TA 230 ensures optimum visibility and safety – both for the machine operator and for those involved in the external area. Thanks to the excellent all-round glazing without any obstructive struts and the short, sloping engine bonnet, the machine operator always has an optimal view of the machine’s driving, working and articulation areas from the operator’s cab. In addition to the excellent all-round visibility, the ergonomically designed cab features intuitive controls. The combination of the visibility concept and intuitive operation ensures a complete overview and high manoeuvrability even in complex application scenarios and under heavy loads.

Maximum performance in challenging off-road applications

The TA 230 impresses with a clever machine concept, which has been developed specially for challenging off-road applications. The design in the front-end area creates maximum ground clearance for superb off-road performance. For example, the powershift transmission and exhaust gas treatment system are positioned behind the operator’s cab in a space-saving and safe manner. The resulting slope angle allows the machine to manoeuvre safely even in the most difficult terrain. The solid articulated swivel joint provides outstanding offroad gear: it allows independent movement of the front and rear truck, ensuring maximum agility and manoeuvrability. The robust and positive-locking swivel joint with tapered roller bearing is perfect for the shear stresses arising during use, withstands maximum loads and provides optimal force distribution.

Powerful drive with maximum traction: Superb driving performance and combined pulling force

The TA 230 Litronic is equipped with a powerful 6-cylinder construction machinery engine with a displacement of 12 litres and 265 kW / 360 hp, which meets the requirements of various emission stages depending on the configuration.

A robust and efficient drivetrain with automatic 8-speed powershift transmission ensures optimum force transmission. Equipped with four differential locks, the vehicle is ideally applicable for the most difficult ground conditions. Even in these conditions and on the most demanding inclines, the Liebherr dump truck impresses with its excellent driving performance and enormous pulling force. Maximum safety is always guaranteed thanks to optimum adhesion.
