LIEBHERR-AUSTRALIA
MINING a reduced cost . Liebherr promotes a vertical integration model which allows l control of our cost and component life , in turn reducing costs for the end-user .
“ Our key customers that Liebherr- Australia predominately work with are tier-one mining houses which largely deal in iron ore and coal said David Pichanick , the general manager of sales and marketing at Liebherr-Australia . “ The company has been very successful with the likes of BHP , Glencore , Fortescue Metals Group , Leighton Group , and Downer to name a few . We ’ ve put such a big installed population of machinery out in those two commodities of late , and that machinery is working even harder now , despite the price of both coal and iron ore dropping . Both our parts and support business will continue to grow ”
“ The location will be a total rebuild centre for all of our major components for our mining operations in Australia and New Zealand ,” said Pichanick . “ All of the spare parts and components from the machinery will be sent back to Adelaide for remanufacture and then go back into the distribution outlets around Australia . We used to use various subcontractors to take care of this process , but now we will be able to do everything in house .” www . liebherr . com . au 101
