“Expectations were high” – new LB Series in operation

“We have maintained a close partnership for many years,” says Wolfgang Bucher, Leading Site Manager at Kurt Motz. “Suggestions for improvement are discussed constructively and applied quickly. That makes it possible for us to complete complicated construction projects without any problems.” The company has been a customer of Liebherr-Werk Nenzing GmbH since the introduction of the series of drilling rigs and received the very first LRB 125.

Kurt Motz attaches a lot of importance to being on the cutting edge of technology. Therefore, between October 2020 and March 2021, the company is gradually converting to the new LB series from Liebherr with these 5 machines. Recently Christoph Dona, Sales Manager at Liebherr-Werk Nenzing GmbH, was able to hand over the key for the LB 45 to Wolfgang Bucher. One LB 20.1, one LB 25 and two LB 30s will follow.

Even more flexibility

A decisive factor for exchanging the machines was the huge advantages in flexibility. The modular leader can be easily converted from the standard to a low head version. Remote control facilitates safe loading and unloading of the machine on or from the low loader, or assists during assembly. Machine operator Anestis Papanikolaou adds, “The new assistance systems such as Kelly Visualization and Ground Pressure Indication make life a lot easier. You can feel the 10 % more power of the LB 45 over its predecessor immediately.” Thomas Markus, Workshop Manager at Kurt Motz, also emphasizes the good customer service with excellent advice and fast parts deliveries.
