Sheltered waters

The CBB wire luffi ng crane is suitable for multi-purpose and bulk handling on vessels up
to Panamax size. Equipped with either a single rope or motor grab these cranes are an
economical solution nevertheless providing effi cient performance.

Bulk handling and transshipment in sheltered waters can be performed by
a wide range of Liebherr cranes starting with slewing cranes with single
rope or motor grabs through to heavy duty high performance slewing
or double girder four-rope grab cranes, depending on the individual
requirements of the customer. As for cranes performing in open sea, safe
and precise crane operation is ensured with Liebherr’s own Litronic
