Hydraulic crawler crane makes and preserve space exploration history
An LR 1750/2 hydraulic crawler crane lifted the Endeavor space shuttle orbiter into launch position at the Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center. Preserving humanity’s accomplishments keeps a record of our existence and our exploration of the vast unknown. The Endeavor space shuttle orbiter, which flew 25 missions from 1992 to 2011, was one such […]
Drilling “unplugged”
Liebherr has expanded its portfolio of piling and drilling machines for deep foundation applications with the LB 30 “unplugged” drilling rig. The battery-powered drive concept offers the same performance as the conventional diesel version and with the advantage of zero emissions. While the diesel LB 30 is powered by a Liebherr D936 StageV/Tier4f engine rated […]
Liebherr expands axial-piston offerings
At this year’s IFPE 2023 show, Liebherr Components presented its expanded line of axial piston pumps — including two new pumps with nine nominal sizes. To keep pace with ever-increasing demands for availability and durability, the new size 550 cc was developed in close cooperation with customers for use under extreme working conditions, according to […]
Liebherr’s hybrid cylinders for lightweight construction
Lightweight construction is considered an important trend and driver as OEMs strive to make off-road machinery more efficient and productive. It’s also becoming more significant in many stationary applications. In mobile equipment, for example, weight savings can increase operating speeds, allow for larger attachments and booms, and raise payloads. And, of course, it often reduces […]
Sustainable machine designs top Bauma innovations
While many compact machines boast all-electric systems, several prototype designs feature alternative options to power larger, heavier-duty equipment. At Bauma this past October, most mobile machinery makers touted new or prototype designs that feature low-carbon, sustainable systems. Electrification was a hot topic as it has been, but all-electric designs were mostly limited to compact machinery. […]
Force measurement within hydraulic cylinders
Classic hydraulic cylinders equipped with force-sensing elements allow precise and dynamic measurement of static and dynamic tensile and compressive loads. Indirect force-measurement via strain offers a smart alternative, according to engineers at Liebherr Components, Nussbaumen, Switzerland. Increasingly, mobile and industrial equipment manufacturers are focusing on sensor solutions and their efficient use in hydraulic cylinders. One […]
Simple, reliable hydraulic circuit helps power Liebherr truck-mounted concrete city pump
Liebherr USA Co. Concrete Technology launched the THP 80-LP truck mounted concrete city pump at World of Concrete 2022 last week. It is the latest product designed for the North American market. The THP 80-LP is the smallest in Liebherr’s expansive truck mounted pump product range. The new THP 80-LP truck mounted concrete city pump […]
