Liebherr unveils heavyweight MHC
Liebherr is to launch a new Mobile Harbour Crane model at TOC Europe 2011 to bridge the gap between the LHM 550 and the LHM 280.
The LHM 420 will be available in two variants with maximum lifting capacities of 84 and 124 tonnes.
Liebherr claims a “highly successful” undercarriage system gives the “most manoeuvrable mobile harbour crane in the market”.
The crane will also feature the manufacturer’s Pactronic hybrid drive system, allowing the unit to handle the same quantity of cargo in 30% less time and delivering a 30% reduction in exhaust emissions.
