    Particulars Liebherr R 9600 G8 Komatsu PC5500-6
    Overview Summary

    When comparing the Komatsu PC5500-6 to the Liebherr R 9600 G8, we see two formidable machines designed for large-scale mining operations. The Komatsu offers dual engines totaling 1260 HP with a solid 29 m³ bucket capacity, while the Liebherr stands out with its higher digging force and larger bucket capacity of 37.5 m³ powered by twin engines with a notable 3620 HP.

    Komatsu PC5500-6

    Pros:

    • High-powered dual Komatsu engines providing 1260 HP
    • Large bucket capacity of 29 m³ suitable for heavy-duty mining operations
    • Impressive maximum digging reach of 19800 mm
    • Equipped with standard AC cabin and GPS
    • Robust undercarriage with 9720 mm length supported by a strong track system

    Cons:

    • Relatively lower bucket digging force compared to the Liebherr R 9600 G8 at 1450 kN
    • Engine technology is Tier 2, which may not be as efficient as more modern standards
    • Operating weight is high, which could affect transportation and maneuverability

    Liebherr R 9600 G8

    Pros:

    • Superior bucket digging force of 1740 kN indicating stronger penetration power
    • Higher-rated power with dual Liebherr engines totaling 3620 HP
    • Larger bucket capacity of 37.5 m³, making it highly productive for mass excavation
    • Advanced hydraulic system with 8 variable flow axial piston pumps
    • Offers both diesel and electric options for power generation

    Cons:

    • Slightly less undercarriage length than the Komatsu PC5500-6
    • While having a powerful engine, fuel efficiency details are not provided
    • Higher ground bearing pressure of 263.8 kPa could lead to more ground disturbance

    Pros:

    Cons:

    Closing Recommendation

    The choice between the two should depend on the specific requirements of the job. For projects prioritizing higher digging force and larger bucket capacity, the Liebherr R 9600 G8 seems to be a strong contender. However, for operations requiring a robust undercarriage and a high-power engine, the Komatsu PC5500-6 remains a competitive option.
