Overview Summary

The Liebherr L580 and Komatsu WA480-6A wheel loaders are both robust machines suitable for high-load material handling in the construction and mining sectors in India. While the Liebherr L580 boasts a higher payload and faster top speed, the Komatsu WA480-6A has a slight edge in engine power and emission standards.

Liebherr L580 Wheel Loader

Pros:
  • Higher payload capacity of 8640 kg
  • Larger bucket capacity of 5.2 m³
  • Max torque of 1228 Nm available at lower rpm (1600 rpm)
  • Robust hydrostatic transmission
  • Higher operating weight for potentially better stability: 26950 kg
  • Faster top forward speed of 40 km/h
  • Standard AC cabin
Cons:
  • Slightly higher emissions at Stage II compared to Komatsu's Stage IIIA
  • Lower tipping load compared to Komatsu WA480-6A
  • Shorter warranty period of 1 Yr./2000 hr.

Komatsu WA480-6A Wheel Loader

Pros:
  • Engine with a slightly higher max power of 300 HP
  • Better emission compliance with EPA Tier 3 / EU Stage IIIA standards
  • Feature-rich with standard GPS and longer warranty period of 1 Yr./3000 hr.
  • Bigger engine piston displacement of 11.04 L
  • Higher maximum torque is expected (specific figure not provided)
  • Wider availability of bucket capacity options from 3.8 to 6.1 m³
Cons:
  • Lower top forward speed of 36.3 km/h
  • AC cabin is optional, not standard
  • Operating weight is slightly lower, which might impact stability

Closing Recommendation

Choosing between Liebherr L580 and Komatsu WA480-6A depends on specific needs and preferences. For operations that require a larger bucket capacity and standard AC cabin, opt for the Liebherr L580. On the other hand, if engine power, emissions compliance, and a longer warranty are more critical, the Komatsu WA480-6A may be the better choice.
