bauma '04.2019

Munich (Germany), 8 April 2019 – Since the beginning of the year, Liebherr has launched seven crawler excavator models under 50 tonnes. All the platforms developed and produced by Liebherr-France SAS in Colmar are represented on the Liebherr stand at the Bauma exhibition. The R 930, the mid-weight model of the series, is a brand new Liebherr crawler excavator for earthmoving works.

The Generation 8 series, which has gone into production at Liebherr-France SAS in Colmar, is made up of seven models ranging from 22 to 45 tonnes: R 922, R 924, R 926, R 930, R 934, R 938 and R 945. The easy-to-transport, versatile and efficient R 930 crawler excavator is fully compatible with the requirements of customers and operators of 30-tonne machines.

The R 930 on display on the Liebherr stand at the Bauma trade fair complies with Stage V emission standards and – together with the R 926 – is based on a specific platform developed by Liebherr. The R 926 and the R 930 have an operating weight of between 26 and 36 tonnes, and achieve a power of 150 kW/204 hp and 180 kW/245 hp respectively. The backhoe bucket capacities vary from 0.55 m3 to 1.75 m3 on the R 926 and between 1 m3 and 2.15 m3 on the R 930. The R 926 and R 930 models are available worldwide with the relevant engines.

To achieve Stage V emissions standrads, the R 926 replaces the Stage IV excavator of the same name that was launched in 2016. The R 930 is a brand new weight category for the crawler excavator series developed and produced by Liebherr-France SAS. This was developed in answer to customers' needs for 30-tonne excavators: The easy-to-transport, versatile and efficient R 930 crawler excavator more than meets the expectations of customers and operators.
