Liebherr LRS 645 - Manual (Page 6)

Economy makes you smile. Performance you need. Reliability you can trust.
The “award” for the most striking feature of Liebherr
reachstackers certainly goes to a uniquely curve-
shaped, telescopic boom for unrivalled reach plus
extra space for stacking.
Boosting container handling
efficiency
Having turned away from the straight boom concept,
direct access to 2nd and 3rd row containers is easily
manageable without any necessary removal of boxes
in the front row. Obviously such innovative container
movements will have a major positive impact on the
efficiency of container stacking yards in terminals
around the globe.
Comfort you can feel.
With a Liebherr reachstacker you don’t just see the
difference, you can even feel it! Actually, from the
moment the driver takes his seat, he’ll experience the
trend-setting comfort of this machine which obviously
contributes to an overall improvement of handling rates
and a remarkable reduction in fatigue times.
Long live the reachstacker
Whereas conventional reachstackers are characterised
by strong vibrations in the chassis and the driver’s
cabin, Liebherr reachstackers come with a highly effec-
tive shock absorbing system. The cabin, power pack
and transmission are all supported on one frame leading
to a remarkable decrease of natural frequencies and a
reduction of vibrations, resulting in a long lifetime of
components.
Control meets comfort
A spacious, comfortable cabin with unique working
visibility provides the driver with an optimum working
atmosphere. From his ergonomically designed, air-
suspended seat he can easily operate any reachstacker
movement as well as any spreader activation by means
of two simple joysticks – combining ultimate control
with outstanding comfort!
Access all areas
Where the driver appreciates step-less speed control
as well as the selection of horizontal/vertical load paths,
the service staff benefits from an optimum access to
all service points, even enabling a spreader service
directly from the ground.
Consequently a Liebherr reachstacker is not just a
suitable tool for handling present requirements, but
also an investment into the future!
Inspired by nature,
designed by Liebherr
Due to its unconventional design the curve-shaped
telescopic boom has been labelled the “banana
boom” almost immediately after its first appearance
in the market. And just like the banana, the Liebherr
reachstacker offers plenty of vitamins – in other
words – useful resources to its operators. In terms
of reach, this comprises the unique possibility of
loading/unloading containers from/to below ground
level e.g. from/to barges – without any special boom
extension!
During its long relationship with the maritime world,
Liebherr has gained an excellent reputation with
respect to quality and reliability of its products. So
when the time came to build its own reach-stacker,
Liebherr could make substantial use of thousands
of thoroughly tested and maritime-proven compo-
nents – which is obvious from the cover (use of glass-
fibre reinforced construction of the chassis) right into
the “heart” of the reachstacker (implementation of
the Litronic® electronic control system).
You are not alone
A common saying goes “A product is just as good
as its after-sales service.” Sooner or later any kind
of reachstacker may face malfunctions and – if it’s
a critical one – may even cause the unit to be out of
order for some time. Every reachstacker deserves
regular service and maintenance, doesn’t it?! That’s
exactly the time when a Liebherr customer benefits
from an excellent world-wide service network with
highly qualified engineers who understand their
business and assist their clients within the shortest
possible time.
When looking at your budgets one has to bear in mind
that for the investment in a reachstacker, the purchase
price is just one figure that needs to be analysed.
Additionally the actual operating costs as well as the
service & maintenance costs definitely have a major
impact on the overall price of a reachstacker!
Hydrostatic transmission
With the revolutionary integration of a fully hydrostatic
transmission and a step-less speed control Liebherr
reachstackers allow for an optimization in diesel rpm
which is clearly reflected by a very low fuel consump-
tion. And as the hydraulic pressure is also at a lower
level – compared to conventional reachstackers – a
long lifetime of power pack components can be
taken into account as well.
Optimum access to the complete power pack. Highly effective shock absorbing system. Touch-screen providing all information
at a glance.
Tested and proven - the in-house developed
Liebherr engine. Spare parts availability guaranteed. After-sales service around the globe –
quick and reliable. Suitable for all kinds of application. Boosting terminal performance. Outstanding handling possibilities for
utmost efficiency. Reaching below quay level – another feature of
the Liebherr reachstacker. Supporting pads for increased lifting capacity in the
second and third row (option).
Individual wheel drive
Due to the implementation of an individual wheel
drive, steering of the reachstacker is effected via the
front axle. This reduces wear and tear of the tyres
to a great extent and minimises any impact of side
forces on the steering and driving axles (especially
with small radii), thus increasing the lifetime of steering
components.
