Liebherr USA To Showcase Specialized Machines at Waste-Expo 2023

Liebherr USA, a leading manufacturer of earthmoving and material-handling technology, is set to showcase its specialized equipment at the Waste Expo 2023 trade event in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The Machines on Display

Liebherr USA will exhibit two of its sixth-generation machines at the event: the L 556 XPower wheel loader and the R 914 Compact Litronic excavator. The L 556 XPower wheel loader has a tipping load capacity of 20,505 to 30,315 pounds and can use buckets with a capacity of 3.4 to 13.1 cubic yards. The R 914 Compact Litronic excavator, on the other hand, is Liebherr’s smallest crawler excavator, with a working weight range of 32,520 to 36,930 pounds. It possesses a bucket that can hold digging force of up to 20,010 pounds-force and a backhoe bucket capacity of 0.42 to 1.05 cubic yards.

Features of the R 914 Compact Litronic Excavator

The R 914 Compact Litronic excavator is equipped with a sensitive hydraulic system that gives the operator precise control at high speeds even when the machine is in motion. The excavator is powered by a Tier 4 Final diesel engine with 122 horsepower and has a rear slewing radius of about 5.1 feet.

Features of the L 556 XPower Wheel Loader

The L 556 X Power wheel loader is designed for performance and power, fuel economy, and operator comfort.

The wheel loader has an operating weight of 43,210 to 47,620 pounds and is powered by a 245-horsepower Tier 4 Final diesel engine. The buckets that this loader can utilize range in volume from 2.3 to 10 cubic meters.
