LHM production facility Liebherr-MCCtec Rostock
Production and Transportation
A clearly defined company strategy guarantees that only top quality products are developed and built in the most
modern production facilities.
Liebherr-MCCtec Rostock
In order to further expand its position in the international
maritime market Liebherr has established an additional
production site for mobile harbour cranes in Rostock’s
harbour district on the German Baltic Coast in 2006.
The production facility in Rostock plays an important role
in the further growth and development of the international
market position of the LHM product division. Overall, the
Liebherr Group has four state-of-the-art production sites
for maritime cranes (Nenzing, Rostock, Killarney and
Sunderland).
Factory Testing
All LHM cranes are put through an intense factory testing
program, this means that every single crane is fully as-
sembled and tested before delivery which results in an ex-
traordinary quick commissioning. Under normal conditions
Liebherr mobile harbour cranes are assembled and ready
for operation within two weeks after delivery.
Fully Assembled Transportation
Thanks to direct access to the sea, Rostock is very well
situated in terms of the logistics of worldwide sales, espe-
cially when shipping large equipment. Ro-Ro shipment,
semi-erected or even fully assembled, are the standard
means of transportation from the Rostock location.
When sent by barge and tug from the Rostock facility,
Liebherr mobile harbour cranes are ready for operation im-
mediately after driving off from the barge and onto the quay.
