With the two material handling machines, the LH 30 M Industry Litronic and the LH 60 M Industry Litronic, Liebherr will present two models specifically designed for scrap handling. The handling of scrap steel and other metals is one of the toughest applications in industrial material handling which requires high-performance and economical material handlers.
The railroad excavator on display, the A 924, represents an example for maximum efficiency with very high flexibility. The machine, which is making its North American debut at Conexpo, is a dual-purpose machine that can be used both on the road and on tracks. The rail undercarriage is mounted on both sides of the undercarriage. With an operating weight of 48,100 “ 55,100 lbs (21,800 to 25,000 kg), the A 924 Rail Litronic combines above-average performance with high economy and meets the requirements of Tier 4f emissions.
Likewise, Liebherr's Generation 8 crawler excavators have proven as top performers since their market launch in the USA at Conexpo 2020: The machines with proven technology have fully established themselves on the US market. The R 924 and R 945A feature higher engine power, a larger counterweight in conjunction with higher bucket capacities and increased digging and pulling forces “ special characteristics of the Generation 8 crawler excavators compared to their predecessors.
The PR 766 G8 is also premiering in the US. The crawler dozer model, which further expands Liebherr's Generation 8 fleet, comes with an operating weight of up to 119,784 lbs and High Drive, the proven and tested undercarriage for heavy mining applications. As the only crawler dozer with hydrostatic drive in the 117,859 - 119,784 lbs (50 t) class, the PR 766 offers maximum efficiency, productivity and safety.
The concrete technology product segment is launching US sales of an exhibit that combines the most efficient technologies in a compact machine. The new 36 XXT truck mounted concrete pump comes equipped with the advantages of a new five-part folding boom with the Powerbloc drive unit and the semi-closed oil circuit. The 36 XXT is a versatile machine including multiple comfort and safety enhancing factors, such as ergonomic access steps and simplified accessibility. An extremely compact assembly with no boom overhang at the rear ensures high maneuverability in confined spaces. A major highlight of the new 36 XXT is Liebherr's newly developed Powerbloc pump drive unit that is characterized by the fact that all hydraulic switching and measuring elements are fully integrated.

With the compact transport weight of 50,706 USt (46 t), the complete crane can be transported easily between jobsites. Whether expanding the infrastructure with bridges or tunnels, constructing stadiums or factories with steel or precast concrete elements, working in the energy sector or lifting work on high buildings “ this versatile and highly efficient machine is useful in the most diverse work applications.
