Nucor Raw Materials Group receives handover of a Liebherr LH 60 Industry E material handler at Conexpo 2026
Nucor Raw Materials Group takes delivery of a Liebherr LH 60 Industry E material handler at Conexpo 2026.
Liebherr delivers an LH 60 Industry E material handler to Nucor Raw Materials Group at Conexpo 2026. The addition of this electric material handler to their fleet further demonstrates the two companies’ commitment to sustainability in the scrap and recycling industry.
Nucor Raw Materials is a leading provider of scrap metal recycling, trading, and transportation solutions. Focused on securing and processing scrap for high-quality steel production, the company plays a critical role in advancing sustainability by reusing materials, reducing emissions, and preserving resources.
The standard for sustainability
The LH 60 M Industry E material handler is designed for the heavy-duty material handling required for high-demand recycling and scrap operations. Equipped with Liebherr’s patented ERC System (energy recovery system), the machine receives a boost in performance as well as fuel savings. The attachment of the machine is available in a variety of versions and is always optimally matched to your respective application including scrap, waste, and recycling.
Electric material handlers are the future for sustainability in the industry. They can work with power from a variety of sources thanks to their powerful electric motor, in addition to the Liebherr frequency inverter that further optimizes energy efficiency. The machine not only reduces the noise pollution and emissions during operation, but it also lowers energy and service costs. Cable variants and a battery-powered version allow for more flexibility on site, in addition to stationary use.

Liebherr is increasing the overall service life of its Fibre ropes from 14 to 16 years, with the decisive period of use rising to up to 12 years. This is based on multi-year ageing trials on test rigs and analyses of ropes already in field. The new ruling applies automatically to all new ropes and those already in the field. This step forms part of Liebherr's ongoing path towards establishing Fibre technology as the new standard in the tower crane market.
