The Liebherr R 945 Litronic and Volvo EC480D excavators are both designed for large-scale operations with significant power and advanced features. The R 945 is known for its powerful Liebherr engine and broad bucket capacity, while the EC480D provides a stronger engine, higher gradeability, and a larger bucket size range.
When selecting an excavator, consider the specific needs of your project. If torque and fuel tank capacity take precedence, the Liebherr R 945 Litronic could be preferable. However, for projects requiring higher engine power, greater bucket capacity range, and the ability to handle steep terrain, the Volvo EC480D may be the better choice.
