New mobile harbor crane age at Liebherr
Up to 308 tonnes lifting capacity for heavy industrial goods: LHM 800 becomes Liebherr’s new flagship mobile harbour crane to the market
The new LHM 800 represents a forward-looking extension at the head of Liebherr’s mobile harbour crane range. The dimensions and capabilities of the LHM 800 are unique, outperforming all existing mobile harbour crane models in the market. Liebherr’s newest addition to the portfolio meets growing customer requirements for ever growing vessel sizes and heavy industrial goods, taking container, bulk and general cargo handling to the next level.
The new giant LHM provides a lifting capacity of 308 tonnes, exceeding the maximum capacity of the so far strongest mobile harbour crane, type LHM 600, by not less than 100 tonnes. Thus, the LHM 800 really raises the bar and opens up new fields of application. As industrial goods are getting bigger and heavier, the new crane is a forward-looking solution for ports worldwide.
In addition to single lifts, the new LHM 800 is also designed for tandem lifts. With Liebherr’s tandem operation tool Sycratronic® activated, synchronized movement is guaranteed and one crane driver can simultaneously operate both cranes for improved speed, capacity and safety. In tandem operation with a second LHM 800 the maximum lifting capacity is 616 tonnes.
In container handling configuration the fulcrum point is above 36 metres which eases the handling of bigger vessels. Thanks to its mighty outreach of 64 metres, the LHM 800 is able to efficiently service large container vessels which are as wide as 22 container rows. Generally, Liebherr cranes are well-recognized for their outstanding working speed. The LHM 800 continues this tradition by hoisting and lowering containers with 120 metres per minute. This allows for 38 boxes per hour in standard configuration and even 45 boxes per hour if the crane is equipped with Liebherr’s hybrid power booster Pactronic®.
