The LIEBHERR pipelayer RL 52 is a versatile machine, which meets all requirements for pipelaying applications. This machine in conceived for applications requiring lifting capacity of up to 80.000 kg / 115.322 lbs.

A special feature of the RL 52 is its asymmetric track frame, which is equipped with extremely wide track pads on the load side. This increases stability and maintains a low ground pressure even with load, ensuring safe working conditions on porous ditch edges.

The machine's extremely low center of gravity due to the working components integrated in the track frame (hydraulic motor and final drive) and its high ground clearance provides the machine optimal terrain manouverability.

The heart of the RL 52 is a turbocharged LIEBHERR diesel engine with an output of 243 kW / 330 HP. The sturdy LIEBHERR diesel engines with low emissions are very economical through their low specific fuel consumption.

The LIEBHERR RL 52 is also available as a conveyor belt shifter, a special conversion, mostly used in open pit mines. Please find more information about this special application here.
