New Model LHM 420<br />

In March 2011, <strong>Liebherr</strong> unveiled its latest model LHM<br />

420, being the successor of the LHM 400. This mobile<br />

harbour crane bridges the gap between LHM 550 and LHM<br />

280. The LHM 420 is available in two variants with<br />

maximum lifting capacities of 84 and 124 tonnes. Thanks<br />

to a maximum outreach of 48 meters, this new type is<br />

ideal for loading and unloading a wide variety of vessels<br />

up to Post-Panamax class. During development phase,<br />

close attention was paid to a function-optimised design.<br />

As a result, the utilisation of the tubular, lightweight tower<br />

design reduces corner loads by 12% compared to its<br />

predecessor. Moreover, <strong>Liebherr</strong>’s ultra-modern<br />

Pactronic ® hybrid drive system is available for the LHM<br />

420, enabling even faster and extra eco-friendly cargo<br />

handling.<br />

Ports worldwide need to stay commercially attractive<br />

against fierce competition. Fast cargo handling is<br />

therefore a fundamental requirement and acquiring a<br />

<strong>Liebherr</strong> <strong>Mobile</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> <strong>Crane</strong> constitutes a decisive step<br />

towards attaining this goal. The third consecutive ‘<strong>Crane</strong><br />

of the Year’ award is testament to the outstanding<br />

competitiveness and high quality of <strong>Liebherr</strong> <strong>Mobile</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> <strong>Crane</strong>s.
