The manufacturer says fixed attachments can reach swing angles of up to 2 x 75° using the new unit. In addition, hydraulic attachments such as sorter grabs, swivel-mounted ditch cleaning buckets and tilt buckets can be combined with the unit for an even bigger swing angle. LiTiU is compatible with attachments from other manufacturers and is available in different versions and sizes.
As a direct mounting, the new LiTiU 18 unit is mounted directly to the stick end of the excavator and makes possible swing angles of up to 2 x 75°.
The new Liebherr LiTiU attachment is designed for applications where the swing angle represents an extension of the working area. It allows more applications of wheeled and crawler excavators.
Apart from classic excavation works, the machines can be used for levelling and modelling banks, levelling and ditch cleaning, as well as demolition and recycling, without the need to reposition the machine or change the attachment.
LiTiU is an attachment developed by Liebherr with protected swivel motor. It is available as a direct mounting or sandwich attachment in two different sizes. As a direct mounting, LiTiU 12 or LiTiU 18 is mounted directly to the stick end of the wheeled or crawler excavator. The connection between the bottom of the LiTiU unit and the attachment is realised either with the Liebherr quick coupling system SWA 33/SWA 48 or the fully automatic Liebherr quick coupling system SWA 33 LIKUFIX/SWA 48 LIKUFIX. Depending on the quick coupling system, swing angles of up to 2 x 75° are possible in this version.
With the optional extended hydraulic circuit the LiTiU 18 unit can also be activated directly. As a result, the high-pressure and medium-pressure circuits are available for the functions of the attachments. Liebherr says there is no need to change over to the joystick control elements and productivity can be increased.
