Compact excavator class
During the Bauma trade fair earlier this year in Munich, we were lucky enough to be given early exclusive access to the show as one of the invited guests of the Liebherr Social Media Influencers event, amongst over 60 machines on stand one of the most impressive for me was the new R 920 Compact model.
Of course there were many machines on the Liebherr stand that offered the ultimate wow factor, like the giant T 264 dumptruck and the R 9200 mining excavator, but for everyday construction site work my favourite machine on the stand was the R 920 Compact which made its world premiere at the Bavarian machine fest.
The R 920 Compact ranges in weight from 18,750kgs to 21,300kgs depending on specification and has a power output rating of 100kw (136hp) with its compact dimensions and a tail radius of just 1,850mm the machine is perfect for high production in urban congested areas. But don’t take my word for it, just check out this cinematic style video from the guys and girls at Liebherr and see what a Compact machine can do for you.
