Liebherr is presenting examples of its L 542 and L 576 wheel loaders, a mid-size and large wheel loader series, at Intermat 2015.

As an additional exhibit, Liebherr is presenting the L 542 all-round wheel loader with parallel kinematics, a 3.5 m³ high-dump bucket and LIKUFIX hydraulic quick-hitch system. This design is particularly suited to use in the industrial sector and recycling industry. Powerful Stage IIIB / Tier 4i diesel engines drive the L 576 (205 kW / 279 HP) and the L 542 (120 kW / 163 HP).

Engineers developed a clever solution during the installation of the engine: Liebherr installed the engines in the rear of the machine – crosswise in the L 542, and lengthways in the L 576 with the output shaft facing backwards. In these unique ways, the compact design means that the diesel engine and the variable displacement pump counterbalance each other. The centre of gravity shifts to the rear of the machine.

The 15,600 kg heavy L 542 has a tipping load of 8,560 kg.

The Intermat exhibit, the Liebherr L 542 wheel loader, is equipped with a fluff trap, reversible fan drive and large-mesh radiator. These options protect the wheel loader in dust-filled environments. The fluff trap eliminates coarse dust particles and helps preserve the radiator fins from rapidly becoming blocked. The large-mesh radiator reduces blockage with fluff, wood pulp or other dirt particles. Due to the direction of rotation, the reversible fan blows dirt particles out of the radiator and cleans the cooling system.

A further equipment option for the L 542 exhibit is the LIKUFIX hydraulic quick-hitch system. This practical system has already proven its worth with Liebherr hydraulic excavators and is optionally available for wheel loaders in the mid-sized design series. Through these Liebherr developments, the operator no longer needs to leave the cab to change the equipment on his wheel loader. He can change the equipment in a matter of seconds at the press of a button from the cab – fully automatic, secure and oil-leakage free.
