Liebherr keeps compact with 20-tonne crawler excavator

13 Oct 16 The Liebherr R920 compact crawler excavator, premiered at the Bauma 2016 trade show in April, is now available for purchase.

With a short tail swing of just 1850mm, the R920 has been designed for use on restricted construction sites or in inner city areas.

It has an operating weight between 19 and 21 tonnes and is powered by a 100kW (136hp) engine. It meets Stage IV exhaust emissions regulations by use of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system with urea injection and oxidation catalyst. Particulate filters are available as an option.

The undercarriage is based on the Liebherr X design, which is claimed to improve performance and extend service life. Customers can choose from four undercarriage combinations with a bulldozer blade also available.
