Overview Summary

The Liebherr R 972 Litronic and Liugong 965E HD both offer impressive features for large-scale excavation and mining operations. The Liebherr model boasts a higher engine power and a larger fuel tank, while the LiuGong model provides better maneuverability and gradeability.

Liebherr R 972 Litronic

Pros:
  • Higher engine power with 449 HP for demanding tasks
  • Larger fuel tank capacity at 1140 L for extended operation
  • Greater bucket digging force of 354 kN for heavy-duty excavation
  • Advanced engine technology with an 8-cylinder V-engine, optimized for efficiency and performance
Cons:
  • Lower max dumping height compared to LiuGong 965E HD
  • Travel speed slightly less than LiuGong 965E HD

Liugong 965E HD

Pros:
  • Higher gradeability at 70% makes it suitable for rough terrain
  • Increased swing speed at 8.4 rpm for faster maneuverability
  • Longer boom and arm for greater reach on the ground
  • Heavier operating weight may indicate robustness and stability
Cons:
  • Smaller fuel tank compared to Liebherr R 972 Litronic which could mean more frequent refueling
  • Lower engine power with 444 HP

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

In choosing between the two, consider the specific requirements of the job. If the priority is engine performance and fuel capacity for prolonged tasks, the Liebherr R 972 Litronic might be the better choice. However, for operations involving steep terrain or the need for faster positioning, the Liugong 965E HD could be preferable.
