Liebherr R 918 overview

Liebherr R 918 features overview

Performances

The R 918 excavator is in essence a multi-functional machine that allows its user to work in a large number of applications. Thanks to its compact design and its rubber track shoes, it is ideal for landscaping work as well as urban worksites. The wide range of undercarriages and attachments available make it an essential tool for anyone wanting to combine multi-functionality with performance.


Combined speed and multi-functionality

The powerful slewing gear drive of the uppercarriage allows the R 918 to reach a high speed and torque and therefore it has particularly fast work cycles.


Engine

Quality down to the last detail

The hydraulic, electric and lubrication lines are laid out to ensure optimum operating safety and the permanent uptime of the machine. The pre-assembly top-coat and the surface treatment of the parts ensure maximum protection against corrosion.


Perfect compatibility between components

The components of the power train, such as the Diesel engine, the gears, slewing gear drive and working pumps are Liebherr products that are perfectly compatible with each other and offer maximum reliability.


More efficient energy management

The engineering of Liebherr’s integrated systems and the effective management of the engine and hydraulics constantly control fuel consumption. The new diesel engine, automatic idling, electronic engine speed sensing regulation and Regeneration Plus are just some of the elements that contribute to better energy management. This consumption control minimises the discharge of toxic gases into the atmosphere whilst saving on operating costs. The R 918 also complies with the European Stage IIIB emission regulations with its oxidation catalyst technology.


Hydraulic and electronic system

Easy maintenance

All the maintenance points have been designed for easier access and to make the daily maintenance operations shorter. The gull-wing doors provide access to the parts from ground level. The maintenance of most elements, such as the air filter, the fuel filters, the engine oil filter and the radiators, is performed in complete safety. Grouped together into very distinct compartments, this machine’s maintenance will save you time and increase productivity on your work sites.


Undercarriage

Reliability without concessions

The R 918 is a very robust and reliable machine, ideal for all types of works, including difficult applications. The attachments are fitted with moulded steel parts strategically positioned on the joints. In addition, the continuous optimisation of the structure allows it to achieve the long service life that customers require.


Cab

Comfortable, spacious and ergonomic: all in one

The proportional control allows a very fine manoeuvrability for a sensitive, accurate and more fluid operation of hydraulic tools. This type of control is ideal for the R 918 with its various applications.


A first class work space

In this cab, the operator has a pneumatic seat, an enlarged space and a very comfortable work environment. Depending on the operator’s needs, the Liebherr Premium seat can be chosen as an option. This seat offers maximum seating comfort thanks to its pneumatic lumbar support, its electronic weight-actuated height adjustor and its air-conditioning with activated charcoal and built-in fan. It is especially designed for the operators’ well-being.


Sound level and vibrations reduced to a minimum

To increase work comfort and productivity, the acoustic power inside the operator’s cab is only 71 dB. The cab is mounted on viscoelastic rivets that ensure the vibrations are fully absorbed. The rubber flanges that support the pipes also actively contribute to reducing external noise.


Equipment

Fully automatic air-conditioning

Automatic air-conditioning as standard has more than 12 adjustable ventilation outlets, for the individual control of air flow. The system can be controlled via the touch screen.
