LPS 280 Vanino Commercial Sea Port
LPS
The Liebherr Portal Crane LPS is an efficient combi-
nation of space-saving portal undercarriage (mounted
on rails) and a flexible mobile harbour upper carriage.
Customer-specific requirements such as permissible
quay and rail loadings, track gauges, clearance heights
are individually adapted.
Particularly on narrow quays, individual portal solutions
permit railway trains and road trucks to travel below the
portal.
LBS
In its floating crane concept, Liebherr combines state
of the art technology and over 30 years of experience
in the mobile harbour crane field with the expertise of
established barge manufacturers.
Liebherr floating cranes can be used for transhipment
and midstream operation between ocean-going ves-
sels and river barges on different types of waterways,
including those having no or few quays. In addition, the
LBS solution allows direct cargo transfer from ship to
shore; especially when quays have reached capacity
limits.
This floating crane concept, based on many years of
experience in designing and operating floating cranes
and other transhipment units for various environmental
conditions throughout the world, is conceived for mid-
stream operation in ports and sheltered waters, on riv-
ers and in coastal waters; for ship to ship as well as ship
to shore handling. Based on the Liebherr mobile har-
bour crane series, the LBS models are precisely tailored
to meet individual requirements and manufactured ac-
cording to a uniform design principle combined with
purpose-built barges as customer specific solutions.
