Tower Crane

Solutions

Liebherr’s tower crane division has appointed a
special competence team in Biberach an der Riss
(Germany). It will operate as “Liebherr Tower Crane
Solutions” and consult with customers engaged
on special projects, including power station and
industrial plant construction or wind turbines.

For these projects, “Liebherr Tower Crane
Solutions” will assemble know-how from the
worldwide network of Liebherr companies and
dealers, and coordinate the cooperative process
between the design, stress analysis, production,
sales or rental and after-sales service areas of the
project. The aim is to give customers access to
the full range of benefits available from Liebherr’s
worldwide experience. From the planning phase
onward, experts from the competence centre
will consult with the customer’s staff to develop
efficient, cost-effective procedures. If necessary,
special-purpose cranes or modified series-pro-
duction models will be recommended in addition
to cranes from the standard programme.

The business areas of power-station and plant
construction, wind turbine construction and
special projects are now supported by project
management departments that the division has
established. For each of these business areas,
customers are supported by a dedicated part-
ner within the division, whose task it is to provide
optimal support and the appropriate know-how
for the relevant requirements.

The competence team has already recorded initial
success with the project planning and commis-
sioning of the 630 EC-H 70 Litronic tower crane
for the construction of a wind turbine. For this
task, Liebherr developed an entirely new, cost-
effective solution for wind turbine installation with
a tower crane, and one that avoids unnecessary
consumption of valuable resources.

Wind turbines

High up

The tower crane climbs into the air all by itself. The
1000 EC-B 125 Litronic Flat-Top crane climbs up to
twice as fast as conventional tower cranes using its
completely new climbing equipment.

High wind speeds

As a result of their design, tower
cranes can operate precisely even
in high wind speeds.

Precise and safe

Even very heavy loads can
be positioned precisely using
MICROMOVE fine positioning
mode.

Tower cranes for wind turbines

The 1000 EC-B 125 Litronic

Liebherr has developed special tower cranes for assem-
bling wind turbines. These cranes feature economical
transport, low area requirement for erection and precision
operation even in high wind speeds.

The innovative solution for the use of tower cranes for
assembling wind turbines was developed in 2011. Sev-
eral wind turbines have already been erected using the

The new 1000 EC-B 125 Litronic Flat-Top crane can lift a maxi-
mum of 125 tonnes and has been completely designed for
assembling wind turbines.

630 EC-H 70 Litronic. Its maximum lifting capacity of

70 tonnes has already been used for wind turbines with a hub
height of approx. 140 metres.

Guying

Despite the enormous
height the cranes only have
to be guyed once to the
tower depending on the
job in hand.

Bespoke solutions

Together we can develop
the best foundation solution
for your project.

Everything in view

A perfect view of the load
makes it easier for the crane
driver to position units precisely.

Step by step

The tower crane
climbs into the air
quickly and safely.

Arrive safely

The logistics cost for transporting a tower crane is much
lower than for comparable crane systems. Conventional
semi-trailers are usually all that is required.

Simply well-placed

One of the main features of tower cranes is their low space
requirement. The area requirement for erecting the crane
is around 50 % of other crane systems.

High working speeds

The high performance hoist gear makes a major contribu-
tion to the economical use of the cranes. Loads can be
lifted at speeds of up to 37 m/min.
