The Port of Grenaa, Denmark uses Liebherr Mobile Harbour Crane technology and is now renewing its equipment with an e-drive Liebherr mobile harbour crane type LHM 550.
The demand for sustainable, environmentally sensitive operation and for low-emission cargo handling cranes is becoming increasingly important. The Danish port of Grenaa wants to strengthen its green profile with the emission-free drive.
Before the LHM 550 is delivered to the port of Grenaa, it is given an upgrade at Liebherr’s maritime headquarters in Rostock, Germany. There, the LHM 550 will be fitted with an electric drive, which will significantly reduce future emissions when handling goods.
With its 54 metres long boom and a maximum lifting capacity of 144 tonnes, the LHM 550 covers a wide range of handling options. In addition to the hydrostatic drive, the mobility of the LHM is a decisive advantage for the customer. All wheelsets are individually steerable and have load balancing, whereby the ground pressure for each wheel does not exceed six tonnes. Furthermore, the 360° mobility ensures the highest maneuverability. This is a decisive advantage at all quays and terminals.
