Engineered for Intense Mining

Powerful Drive System

The R 996 B is equipped with two V16 Cummins engines speciﬁ cally designed to withstand the most extreme environments. Set for minimum downtime and to boast a 36 m³ / 47.1 yd³ bucket, R 996 B’s drive system allows to reach the highest uptime performance for maximum productivity.

Optimized Cycle Times

Rather than using open hydraulic circuit, the R 996 B employs a closed-loop swing circuit to enable maximum swing torque while retaining the full oil ﬂ ow for the working circuit. The independent swing circuit in combination with the powerful drive system leads to fast arm motion, which contributes to faster cycle times.

Easy Machine Control

R 996 B’s electronic machine control Litronic Plus contributes to fast loading cycles and easy control, even if multiple movements are required at the same time.

High Digging and Lifting Capabilities

High Digging Forces

Power-Oriented Energy Management

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, the R 996 B’s attachment ensures the highest forces, easy bucket penetration and high ﬁ ll factor to perform even in the most demanding conditions.

The R 996 B’s attachment is equipped with the pressureless boom down function to enable fast cylinder retraction without the need for pump energy. Intelligent energy management diverts the pump ﬂ ow during boom lowering, allowing other cylinder motions to operate unimpeded.

Compact Machine Design

The high-pressure hydraulic system and the optimized pipe and hose layout maximize usable power transmission. The hydraulic pumps are electronically managed to provide optimal pressure compensation and oil ﬂ ow management. The hydraulic system is independently regulated over the engine circuit for the best operational efﬁ ciency.

Cooling System Efﬁ ciency

Liebherr’s large dimensioned cooling system reduces fan power consumption and ensures an ideal machine temperature. The hydrostatic fans operate always on the required level for optimal hydraulic oil cooling efﬁ ciency.

Optimized Service Intervals

The R 996 B’s high pressure hydraulic oil ﬁ ltration systems remove contaminants from the ﬂ uid to offer the highest rate of hydraulic system efﬁ ciency. To maintain the oil quality, all return hydraulic oil ﬂ ow goes through a 15/5 μm ﬁ ne ﬁ ltration system. To promote availability, the grease and fuel tanks are sized to considerably extend the time between service intervals.

Modern Cab for Efﬁ cient Work

Superior Operator Comfort

Working Environment Total Control

The large and spacious cab which equips the R 996 B offers ideal working conditions and optimal operator’s comfort. Mounted on silent blocks, the cab design reduces vibrations and limit noise pollution to provide a quiet environment.
