Liebherr R994 Demolition Excavator with GXT 2555R Shear

Liberty Industrial have commissioned the largest and most powerful mobile shear ever built for their 230 tonne Liebherr R994, bringing the combination to a gross weight of more than 260 metric tonne. The new Genesis GXT 2555R is the first of its kind. With a cutting force of more than 3000 metric tonne, the custom made GXT 2555R attachment will mechanically shear large heavy steel structures with ease and is capable of cutting through a 48 inch steel I-beam in a single bite. Weighing in at more than 31 metric tonne the shear is perfectly paired with Liberty Industrial’s giant Liebherr R994, bringing the combination to a gross weight of more than 260 metric tonne. The shear itself is a jaw dropping 7.85 metres in length and 2.9 metres tall. It has a jaw opening of 1.4 metres and a depth of 1.4 metres.
