Liebherr will exhibit a number of new products at stand E6/B056 on the open-air grounds at Intermat 2018's Villepinte exhibition centre in northern Paris. In addition to the launch of new products for the European market, Liebherr will also present some world premieres.

Visitors to the technology pavilion will be able to find out more about the latest digitization solutions and the Liebherr Reman program.

The Liebherr Group will present a cross-section of the latest construction machine technology at Intermat 2018, taking place from the 23rd to the 28th of April in Paris. In the E6/B056 outdoor area, approximately 4,500 square metres in size, the manufacturer will present innovative highlights from the product ranges for earthmoving and material handling machines, special deep mining machines, tower cranes, mobile cranes, crawler cranes and concrete technology.

Liebherr will present its new series of wheel loaders to visitors at the trade fair stand. Two smaller wheel loaders will celebrate their world premiere at Intermat. The two larger wheel loaders – L 514 and L 518 – were launched last summer. The L 514 Stereo is suitable for community services and road construction, and provides reliable assistance for a wide range of applications. The larger L 518, a completely new model in Liebherr's range of wheel loaders, is designed for industrial use, for instance with solid rubber tires for recycling operations.

Another machine making its premiere is the A 914 Litronic wheeled excavator from emission stage 4, which is being presented for the first time at a trade fair. With an operating weight between 14,900 and 17,200 kg and an engine power of 105 kW/143 hp, the 914 Litronic adapts perfectly for both classic earthmoving and road, sewer and pipeline construction. The machine stands out on every construction site thanks to its high traction for rapid acceleration, as well as high load-bearing capacities and digging forces.

The R 936 Compact crawler excavator will also be on display for the first time in France. It has an operating weight of approximately 35 tonnes and is ideal for use where space is limited, for example in urban construction sites.

Liebherr has reworked the successful 172 EC-B 8 Litronic flat-top crane and will present its successor to experts at Intermat 2018. The jib has been extended by 2.5 metres to 62.5 metres and enables even more accurate division. The 172 EC-B 8 Litronic now lifts 1,800 kilograms at the jib head with a radius of 62.5 metres. The maximum load bearing capacity remains 8,000 kg. The new flat-top crane will be presented on the new 16 EC tower system alongside the LiUP internal crane driver elevator.

Liebherr is also exhibiting their Reman range in Paris using a remanufactured V12 diesel engine. This gives the construction machine operator the option to use used components that have been remanufactured in accordance with industrial standards as fully fledged spare parts.
