LIEBHERR R946 LITRONIC CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

The Liebherr R946 Litronic is a powerful Tier 4 Final compliant hydraulic crawler excavator engineered for heavy-duty construction and earthmoving tasks. It is driven by a Liebherr D936 A7, 6-cylinder in-line diesel engine delivering a net power output of 299 hp (223 kW) at 1800 rpm, with a maximum torque of 1453 lbs-ft at 1000 rpm and a displacement of 640 cu in (10.52 L). This engine features water-cooled cooling and dry-type air cleaning, along with sensor-controlled idling for efficient fuel use. The hydraulic system operates at a maximum pressure of 5511 psi, with a 156-gallon hydraulic fluid capacity enabling high system dynamics and responsiveness. The excavator features a positive control hydraulic system with electronically managed pump flows tailored to tool control and operational modes for optimal performance and fuel efficiency. Electrical power is supplied via a 24V system including dual 180 Ah batteries and a three-phase 28V/100A alternator. The machine operates with an operating weight of approximately 105,380 lbs and a maximum bucket capacity of 4 cubic yards, suitable for demanding excavation loads. The undercarriage includes two carrier rollers and nine track rollers per side, 600 mm triple grouser D7 chains, and achieves a max travel speed of 3.7 mph with a drawbar pull force of 81,606 lbs. Swing mechanism provides an 8.7 rpm swing speed with a wet multi-disc holding brake. The R946 Litronic offers advanced operator comfort with ROPS cabin, automatic air conditioning, multiple LED headlights, camera systems for improved site visibility, and centralized automatic lubrication to reduce maintenance. Its robust build and versatile configurations make it ideal for extensive infrastructure and material handling projects.
