The R 936 Compact Litronic weighs 76,000 lbs, making it one of the biggest reduced tail swing excavators available in the market. It is also designed for working in small spaces. With a tight swing radius, this machine is ideal for urban and bridge demolition applications that require precision. This machine can be outfitted with demolition guarding that protects the machine super structure and cylinders.

High performance no matter the job

The LH 22 M Industry has a compact design, which makes it well suited for deployment on demolition sites.

The L 556 XPower Wheel Loader – fuel efficient, powerful and reliable

Liebherr will showcase the L 556 XPower Wheel Loader at exhibit hall booth #315 at Demolition Austin. Equipped with the innovative XPower driveline, this wheel loader delivers quick working cycles, high tipping loads and high machine uptime, which lead to increased handling capacity and higher productivity.

The XPower driveline with Liebherr-Power-Efficiency achieves up to a 30 percent reduction in fuel consumption when compared to conventional travel drivelines. At highest efficiency, this reduces operating costs and increases profitability. The XPower driveline brakes automatically and the service brake acts only as a support and is subject to minimal wear.

Wheel spin on the Liebherr L 556 wheel loader is prevented through continuous tractive effort control of the XPower driveline, combined with automatic self-locking differentials. Productivity is increased and tire wear reduced by up to 25 percent.

In addition, the L 556 XPower wheel loader on display at the indoor exhibit booth will feature Liebherr‘s full guarding package, which protects vital undercarriage areas of the machine, such as the tilt cylinder and windshield. The unit on display at the show is also equipped with solid tires, to provide a complete example of a package that is ready for any demolition environment.

The L 556 XPower has safe and easy engine accessibility for daily checks. Critical maintenance points on the loader can be reached quickly, providing faster turnarounds and higher uptimes. And with a width of 9 ft. 8 inches, length of 30 ft. and weight of 55,000 lbs, the machine’s profile is designed for the necessity of road transport.
