In some scenarios,such as engineering construction, mining operations, and material handling locations , excavators are not only the main force for excavation and loading, but also play a crucial role in precisely controlling the weight of materials. Whether it's the batching at concrete mixing plants or the management of construction materials usage, weight is a core factor that affects the quality, cost, and progress of the project.

In the past, drivers mostly relied on visual estimation or repeatedly weighing at the weighbridge to control the loading volume. This method was not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also often led to material waste, overloading or insufficient loading due to inaccurate estimations. Nowadays, the effective load function equipped on Liugong excavators has completely changed this situation, truly achieving real-time weighing, display and precise recording.
How was it achieved?
The effective load function of Liugong relies on the intelligent electronic control system of the entire vehicle, combined with high-precision sensors and real-time posture detection technology. It automatically senses key information such as the tilt angle of the vehicle body and the load of the cylinders, and through intelligent algorithms, calculates the exact weight of the materials in the bucket in real time.

In simple terms: it's like equipping an excavator with a portable scale. During operation, the weight can be automatically measured, and the data is displayed in real time on the driver's console, achieving an integrated operation of digging, weighing and recording".
Overview of Payload Function Advantages
The payload function is not merely a technological upgrade; It represents a revolutionary approach to work. It transforms the excavator from a single operation tool into an intelligent workstation that integrates excavation, weighing, and recording. The four core values below are the key factors that help you achieve a new experience of precise, efficient, and worry-free operations.



01 Accurate weighing, controlling errors from the source
The error rate of traditional manual estimation is usually between 10% and 20%. However, with the payload function using multi-sensor collaboration and dynamic compensation algorithms, the accuracy error can be controlled within ±5%. Whether it is waste incineration power generation or sand and gravel batching at the mixing station, precise weight control can be achieved, avoiding cost waste from the source.
02 Double Efficiency, Save Effort and Time
In the past, after the excavator loaded the materials, it needed to drive the vehicle to the weighbridge for a second weighing. If the weight did not meet the standard, it would have to return for adjustment. The entire process was time-consuming and labor-intensive. However, the effective load function enables loading while weighing, allowing the driver to monitor the weight of the bucket in real time from the cab. A single loading can meet the standard, eliminating the need for a second weighing. This significantly improves the utilization rate of on-site equipment and the overall transportation capacity of the fleet.
03 Data Traceability, Easier Management
The system not only displays the weight in real time, but also automatically saves key data such as the loading weight, bucket count, and target completion status for each trip. You can view and export the records at any time, which is convenient for workload statistics and cost accounting, making on-site management easier and more transparent.
04 Suitable for multiple scenarios, with strong versatility
Whether it's loose soil, gravel, or thick mud and sand, the system can automatically adapt through intelligent algorithms to achieve stable and precise weighing. Installation is simple and it is applicable to various operation scenarios such as mining, municipal works, and construction.
Payload Efficiency and Win-Win Cooperation
From empirical estimation to real-time precise weighing, the payload function of Liugong not only addresses the pain points of low accuracy, slow efficiency and difficult management in traditional operations, but also drives the entire engineering industry to transition from extensive construction to a new era of meticulous management.
For enterprise managers, it can effectively control material costs, reduce labor expenses, and enhance the overall profit of the project;
For operators, the work becomes easier, the goals are clearer, and repetitive labor is significantly reduced;
For Liugong, this is a vivid manifestation of our continuous pursuit of mechanical intelligence and meeting the actual needs of customers.

Choosing the Liugong payload is not merely about selecting a single function; it is about choosing a more efficient and less stressful working method.
