Deep foundation solutions

Liebherr piling and drilling rigs cover an extensive range of applications including piling, vibrating, pressing and drilling. With the appropriate attachment tool, many deep foundation methods can be utilized with a Liebherr deep foundation machine.

The Liebherr LRB 19 piling and drilling rig is designed for all common deep foundation applications, such as piling and vibrating applications as well as drilling with Kelly equipment, double rotary head, full displacement tool or soil mixing. The name LRB 19 refers to the maximum travel distance of the carriage of 62 ft (19 m).

The attachments can be easily changed using the hydraulic quick connection system without the operator having to leave the cab. All hydraulic, mechanical and electrical connections are automatically coupled. Improved hose routing also optimizes work process on site, and a 450 kW motor provides the necessary power for all applications.
