S1 Vision GmbH, a technology spin-off of the Liebherr Group, has unveiled its new concept of autonomous transportthe S1 Vision. This self-balancing electric truck stands out for its minimalist design and versatile capabilities in demanding industrial environments.
S1 Vision design with high performance
Unlike conventional vehicles, the S1 Vision is built on a single axle and has no cab at all. This simplified structure allows it to operate in confined spaces and improves operational efficiency. Its load capacity ranges from 220 kg to 131 tons, depending on the configuration and sector in which it is used.
Thanks to its zero turning radius, this conveyor system can move with great agility even in tight environments, such as vineyards, warehouses or underground mines. subway mines. In addition, its modularity allows the unit to be adapted for loading, towing or specialized transport functions.
Stability and safety on any terrain
One of the key aspects of this vehicle is its self-leveling system, which ensures constant balance and traction on uneven ground. This technology reduces operational risks and enables its safe use in construction projects, heavy logistics or precision agricultural tasks.
The electric drive of the S1 Vision eliminates local emissions, reducing environmental impact and operating costs. In addition, it integrates intelligent sensors and a digital architecture ready to coordinate with other units through swarm technology.
A collaborative platform for multiple industries
Behind the development of the S1 Vision is the collaboration of various Liebherr divisions. The structure comes from the mining divisionwhile the autonomous systems originate from the earthmoving division. This synergy has resulted in a robust, flexible platform with transverse projection.
S1 Vision GmbH is currently in the commercial validation phase, exploring partnerships with transport companies, logistics centers and machine operators. Its goal is to adapt the system to different sectors through field tests and constant technological evolution.
