Liebherr launches new crawler excavator in Generation 8 series

Liebherr has announced the launch of its new R 928 Generation 8 crawler excavator, the new addition to the Generation 8 series. The R 928 G8 crawler excavator is a new model, developed and produced by Liebherr-France SAS in Colmar. The new model positioned between the R 926 G8 and the R 930 G8 complements the current Generation 8 series, which already includes seven models with a gross vehicle weight of 22 to 45 tonne.

The modularity of the new Generation 8 facilitated the launch of this new model as its design is based on existing, high-performance components. This new, weight-optimised combination aims to significantly reduce the transport problems of many customers.

The R 928 G8 has several features in common with the R 926 G8 and R 930 G8—the same superstructure and equipment as the R 926 G8 and the same LC or NLC undercarriage as the R 930 G8. Its performance lies between the R 926 G8 and the R 930 G8.

The R 928 G8 crawler excavator rounds off the current range of Generation 8 crawler excavators. The characteristics of the excavator as mentioned by the company are, high drawbar pull, load-bearing capacity and a large bucket.

According to Liebherr, the Generation 8 develops higher tear and breakout forces compared to the previous generation. The torque of the superstructure has also been increased. This means that the new crawler excavators can achieve higher levels of performance under site conditions. In addition, a new equipment concept enables the load curve to be optimised and the inertia in the rotary drive to be improved, reducing fuel consumption. The new, robust X-form undercarriages ensure greater stability. The automatic central lubrication ensures a longer service life of the parts and improves the productivity of the machines.

The Liebherr Group is a family owned technology company for construction machinery, but also offers user-centred products and services in many other areas.
