Über · Liebherr R920Übersicht
The Liebherr R920 is a crawler excavator positioned in the 20-tonne operating class, with a published operating weight of 20,500 kg and an engine output of 150 hp. It is equipped with a 0.95 m³ bucket capacity, placing it firmly in the medium excavator segment suited to demanding civil and groundworks applications. Although sometimes catalogued under broader compact categories, the R920 operates at the upper boundary of that range, offering the digging force and stability associated with full-size production machines.
Typische AnwendungsbereicheWo diese Maschine eingesetzt wird
Machines in the 20-tonne class are routinely deployed on foundation excavation, pipeline trenching, road construction, and bulk earthmoving tasks where a balance of reach, breakout force, and site mobility is required. The R920 bucket capacity of 0.95 m³ supports efficient cycle times in medium to heavy soil conditions. Secondary applications include site preparation, drainage works, and material handling when fitted with appropriate auxiliary equipment.
Gebrauchtmarkt-InspektionWas Sie vor dem Kauf beachten sollten
Inspection of any 20-tonne crawler excavator should prioritise undercarriage wear, as track components represent a significant replacement cost in this class. Buyers should assess sprocket, idler, and track pad condition visually and request any available service records. Hydraulic system integrity, including hose condition, cylinder seals, and attachment circuit function, warrants close attention. Engine performance under load, swing bearing play, and boom and stick pin wear are standard inspection points. Confirm that the machine's documented configuration, attachments, and any auxiliary hydraulic fittings match what is physically present, and verify that all service intervals recorded align with the hours shown on the meter.
Aktueller MarktPreisposition
The Liebherr R920 is cross-shopped most directly against the Wacker Neuson ET145 and Wacker Neuson ET90. The ET145 sits closest in class weight, while the ET90 represents a lighter, lower-output alternative for buyers whose site requirements do not demand the R920's 20,500 kg operating weight or 150 hp power output. Liebherr's build quality, dealer support network, and parts availability are factors buyers weigh against Wacker Neuson's product range. Within the R920's own price band, the primary attributes that move a unit are accumulated service hours, overall mechanical and undercarriage condition, the presence of a quick-coupler or additional attachments, and whether the machine is in a standard or specialist configuration. Documentation of scheduled maintenance history also influences where a unit sits relative to comparable examples on the market.
