OREANDA-NEWS. The representatives of Liebherr, Germany, visited Tuimazinskiy Zavod Avtobetonovozov, KAMAZ’s subsidiary in Bashkiria. They were welcomed by Evgeny Pronin, Deputy Director General of KAMAZ for Sales and Service, and other KAMAZ top managers.

The delegation included Frank Siefert, Managing Director of Liebherr Mischtechnik GmbH and Liebherr Betonpumpen GmbH; Stanislav Goncharov, Head of the Former USSR Countries Group at Liebherr Betonpumpen GmbH; Dmitry Sudakov, Director of the Department of Concrete Mixers at OOO Liebherr-Russland.

Accompanied by Aleksandr Betekhtin, Technical Director of OAO TZA, the guests visited the factory to see production processes and manufactured products. After the tour, negotiations were conducted on issues of the further joint production of concrete mixers and improvement of maintenance of such vehicles.

It should be recalled that mutually advantageous cooperation of Liebherr and TZA lasts for more than three years. Liebherr is one of the world’s leading producers of construction and other equipment (lifting cranes, dump trucks, etc.). To date, mobile cranes mounted on KAMAZ chassis enjoy stable demand on the Russian market. As regards cooperation in the production of autoconcrete pumps, both companies have great achievements too: TZA-LIEBHERR autoconcrete pumps successfully compete with world-known brands. During the International Specialized Exhibition Construction Equipment and Technologies-2013, TZA in cooperation with Liebherr presented a 42-meter autoconcrete pump ABN-42 on a KAMAZ-65201 chassis of the TZA-LIEBHERR series. The debut of the ABN-42 concrete pump was a success: it was immediately sold through the commodity distribution network of OJSC KAMAZ and delivered to a customer after the exhibition.
