bauma '04.2019

Munich (Germany), 28 January 2019 – Since the start of the year at Liebherr-France SAS in Colmar (France), production of the latest generation of earthmoving crawler excavators has been under way: The "Generation 8". This new stage is predominantly characterised by even greater power, even higher productivity and even more comfort for the operator. The new R 934 model (based on the platform of the R 934 and R 938 models) is presented at Liebherr's trade fair stand alongside an engine which meets Stage V emission standards. Like all models in the new generation, the Liebherr crawler excavator, launched in 2019, also boasts numerous improvements.

The "Generation 8" stands out with a new design which was presented back in October alongside the other models in the series (R 922 and R 924).

The R 934 presented at the Bauma 2019 trade fair complies with Stage V emission standards and, together with the R 938, is based on a specific platform developed by Liebherr-France SAS. The R 934 and the R 938 have an operating weight of 35 and 38 tonnes, and achieve a power of 200 kW/272 hp and 220 kW/299 hp. The backhoe bucket capacities vary from 1 m3 to 2.5 m3 on the R 934 and between 1 m3 and 3 m3 on

the R 938. The R 934 and R 938 models are available with the relevant engines in countries where emission standards regulation is extremely stringent or less stringent, or in countries where such regulation does not exist at all.

In combination with the engine that meets Stage V emission standards, the R 934 is positioned between the R 936 (launched in 2015) and the new R 938. The R 938 in turn replaces the R 946. With regard to the engines that meet Stage IIIA emission standards and the engines for unregulated markets, the new position of the R 934 is now between the R 934 C and the R 938. The R 938 succeeds the R 944 C.
