R 9400 G6

Built for when the going gets tough

The R 9400 can be relied upon to provide top-notch performance again and again and again. With its class-leading payload capacity and a service life of more than 60,000 operational hours, this powerful piece of digging equipment will be a high-performing and reliable partner for the long term. And with its modular design, the R 9400 can easily be repowered, retrofitted, or upgraded with the technology of the future. Plus, this hydraulic excavator comes equipped with Liebherr’s D9812 V12 powertrain meaning customers only need one point of contact for their maintenance needs, therefore keeping this workhorse of an excavator working harder for longer.

R 9400 highlights:

Built to last over 60,000 operational hours

With its modular design, the R 9400 can be upgraded over its lifetime during a major overhaul. The R 9400 integrates robust and reliable mining optimised components that are developed and manufactured by Liebherr, which ensures the best reliability and highest performance.

9% more payload capacity

Move more material per pass than any other competitor thanks to its class leading payload capacity.

One stop shop

R 9400 equipped with a Liebherr proven D9812 V12 powertrain, a one-stop shop for the customer's every need.

We needed to find a machine that would provide better availability than the wheel loader while still matching the 240-tonne truck. Liebherr came to the table with the R 9400. They also took the extra step to develop an optimised bucket for the machine. We’ve actually seen about a 40% gain in our production in the last three months.

Minimise your carbon impact

Liebherr D9812 ICE*

The D9812 ICE is built to withstand the tough conditions of the mining industry. By reducing the rated speed to 1,500 rpm, the D9812 ICE puts less stress on components, increasing the engine’s lifetime and improving its fuel consumption.

These engines comply with FCO emission standards and provide exceptional performance in all applications.

*Internal Combustion Engine

E-Drive: zero emission solution

Liebherr offers an alternative to diesel engines allowing customers to balance performance with environmental consciousness. The R 9400 E-Drive provides class leading cycle times using electric motors without exposing people and the environment to diesel exhaust emissions.

Advantages:

  • No gas emissions on job site.
  • Lower maintenance costs.
  • Reduced noise pollutions.

Excavator truck match*

*Site-specific factors like loose material density, bucket size, fill factors, truck body size and payload capacity will influence pass match. Contact your local Liebherr sales and service company or sales partner for analysis of your site.

The perfect Liebherr pairing

T 264

Liebherr’s T 264 mining truck, a robust member of the 240-tonne size class, is designed to seamlessly complement the R 9400 hydraulic excavator. With its powerful 2,013 kW (2,700 hp) engine, efficient Litronic Plus AC drive system and robust electric wheel motors generating 3,299 kW (4,425 hp), the T 264 delivers exceptional performance and productivity. When paired with the precision and reliability of the R 9400, this combination sets new standards for efficiency and cost-effectiveness in mining.

Explore the rest of the world of Liebherr Mining!

We develop our mining machines in a modular way so that we can constantly upgrade or retrofit them with alternative drives. Our excavators are no exception to this philosophy. In Australia, for example, we retrofitted an R 9400 diesel excavator produced in 2010 with an electric drivetrain, turning it into an R 9400 E.
