State-of-the-art drives
The series of Liebherr rotary drilling rigs is equipped with powerful diesel engines especially designed for heavy-duty
construction tasks. Not only reliability, longevity and ease of service, but also environmental protection was a main
focus during their development.
Fuel savings of up to 40 %
The powerful Liebherr diesel engines, offering 180 – 350 kW depending on the machine class, allow operation of
rotary drives, double rotary heads or soil mixing drives solely via the machine’s on-board hydraulics. No additional
power packs are needed. This saves fuel and thus operating costs. Directly compared with comparable competitors'
products operated under the same conditions the LB series' diesel consumption is significantly lower.
Intelligent cooling system
Through its automatically adjusted ventilation speed, the temperature controlled cooling system withstands even
extreme temperatures and thus reduces fuel consumption as well as noise emissions.
Automatic performance optimization
The Litronic control system, which serves to electronically control and monitor all machine data, precisely implements
all entries, assists the operator and affords extraordinary ease of operation. Furthermore, the diagnostics system
detects and localizes possible failures at an early stage, so the operator can react as early as possible.
Eco-friendly through particle filters
Liebherr also offers particle filters with continuously regenerative technology for its rotary drilling rigs. They can be ret-
rofitted and make the rigs exceedingly eco-friendly - a prerequisite for their application in ecologically sensitive areas.
