LRB 16 Piling and drilling rig (LRB series)

The all-round piling and drilling rig LRB 16 owes its name to the sledge’s travel distance of 16 m. It convinces with compact design and low operating weight, which results in low ground pressure. This ensures quick set-up on site as well as flexibility in transferring the machine between different jobsites. One of the most frequent types of application for the LRB 16 is the installation of slurry walls. Additionally, the machine is suitable for other common foundation work including drilling with continuous flight auger, double rotary head or Kelly bar, soil mixing, and piling work with a hydraulic hammer.

Cruise Control

Cruise Control

Cruise Control is available for automatic piling and drilling processes and allows for values such as pull-down speed and rotational speed to be programmed in advance. more

Obstacle recognition

Obstacle recognition

Obstacle recognition

An improvement for slurry wall application is the obstacle recognition, which enables the timely detection of obstacles in the soil. This protects both the attachment and the basic machine.

Accessories

Rear supports

Rear supports

The robust undercarriage offers excellent stability, which can be further increased with the optional rear supports.

Remote control

Remote control

The complete loading and set-up processes can be carried out via remote control, which means only one person is required. more

Eco silent mode

Eco silent mode

With the eco silent mode the engine speed can be reduced to a predefined, required level. With this feature a notable reduction in diesel consumption can be achieved without any impact on operational output. Noise emissions are thus also lowered.

Automatic engine stop

Automatic engine stop

The machine can optionally be equipped with an automatic engine stop control. Thanks to this feature it automatically switches off during longer work breaks after evaluating several machine parameters. This is fuel saving and environmentally friendly.

Fleet management and teleservice

Fleet management and teleservice

The data transmission and positioning system “LiDAT” provides important information on the operation of the machine. With these data the operation becomes more efficient. Various additional modules allow machine data reporting or access through service engineers via teleservice. more

Electronic evaluation of working processes

Electronic evaluation of working processes

With the PDE process data recording system machine data is recorded during the working process. With PDR these data can be managed, displayed tabularly or graphically, and analyzed. In combination with the telematics system LiDAT these reports can be easily generated from the office. more

Applications

Kelly drilling

Kelly drilling

Kelly drilling belongs to the most common dry rotary drilling methods. Soil and rock material is conveyed to the surface discontinuously with relatively short rotary drilling tools. more

Continuous flight auger drilling

Continuous flight auger drilling

The loosened soil material is continuously conveyed to the surface using a continuous auger, the so-called continuous flight auger. more

Double rotary drilling

Double rotary drilling

Double rotary drilling combines continuous flight auger drilling with a continuous casing. more

Impact driving

Impact driving

Impact driving uses a hydraulic hammer for the installation of various types of pile. The hammer’s ram mass impacts on the pile. more

Vibrating

Vibrating

Vibrating allows for installing and extracting elements using harmonious vibration. more

Wet soil mixing

Wet soil mixing

For wet mixing a self-hardening suspension is introduced into the ground. more

Dry soil mixing

Dry soil mixing

Dry soil mixing

For dry mixing a binding agent is introduced into the ground as powder.
