Productivity

The brand new R 9150 is built to outperform all competitors in the small class mining market. As a perfect loader for 50 t up to 135 t dump trucks and offering a wide array of uses, the advanced R 9150 is the worthy successor of the esteemed Liebherr R 984 C. As the most powerful excavator in the small mining market, this machine reaches the highest excavating forces and an optimal cycle time.

Engineered for Intense Mining

Powerful	The R 9150 is equipped with the long-lasting and
Drive System	proven Liebherr V12 diesel engine specifically
	designed to withstand extreme outside temperatures
	and high altitudes with low atmospheric pressure.
	Integrating the latest engine management system, the
	R 9150 is built for intense mining.
Fast Cycle Times	Rather than using open hydraulic circuit, the R 9150 em-
	ploys a closed-loop swing circuit to enable maximum
	swing torque while retaining the full oil flow for the work-
	ing circuit. The independent swing circuit in combination
	with the powerful drive system leads to fast arm motion,
	which contributes to faster cycle times.
Precise Machine	The R 9150 design integrates the Litronic Plus electronic
Motions	control system to allow for easy control even when simul-
	taneous movements are required. The patended Liebherr
	electronic bucket cylinder damping system provides con-
	trolled end-cushioning for smooth attachment motions.

High Digging and Lifting Capabilities

High Digging Forces		Designed for the best mechanical force distribution, the
		production-tailored attachment delivers high digging and
		lifting forces. Integrating Liebherr-made cylinders and a
		wide range of buckets with mining-optimized GET, the
		R 9150’s attachment ensures the highest forces, easy
		bucket penetration and high fill factor to perform even in
		the most demanding conditions.
Power-Oriented		The R 9150’s attachment is equipped with the pres-
Energy Management		sureless boom down function to enable fast cylin-
		der retraction without the need for pump energy.
		Intelligent energy management diverts the pump flow
		during boom lowering, allowing other cylinder
		motions to operate unimpeded.
