When Peter Pruschek, Head of Electronic and Control System Development at Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH, presents the new LHGearTec control system, he first highlights the striking new features: “We are entering the market with a 24 inch touchscreen monitor – an above-average size for machine tools.
Half a century of Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH means 50 years of commitment to the machinery and plant engineering industry. Gear technology originated in the technology of the revolving tower crane. Hans Liebherr wanted to buy a gear hobbing machine for gear manufacturing, but could not find what he wanted – so he simply built it himself. It’s a typical Liebherr story, since many sectors in the company group have emerged in this or in a similar way. Taking things into one’s own hands: an attitude that can still be found at Liebherr today.
Bauer Gear Motor operates two new LC 180 gear hobbing machines at its facility in Slovakia, producing gearing for all facilities. These machines are characterised by their operational versatility, given that they are used to produce around 180 different components in a very wide range of different sizes.
“The fire pump is the heart of every fire truck”, explains Michael Schöftner, Head of Mechanical Production at Rosenbauer International AG, the global leader for fire service equipment. The equipment has to withstand enormous loads in cases of operation. Rosenbauer relies on an automation solution for pump manufacturing from Liebherr. The rotary loading system RLS 800 from the Kempten-based automation experts has been deployed in Leonding near Linz for around two years now.
As before, ChamferCut is a technology with a great deal of development potential. A new upgrade is now pushing the limits of the impossible.
Based on the proven LGG 280 generating grinding machine, Liebherr is presenting the larger LGG 400 M model at IMTS in Chicago.

The aircraft propulsion systems of today are wonders of technology. Since air travel is rapidly growing in demand around the world, the production technology employed until now needs to be modernised.
E-cars are very demanding in terms of gear quality. Great Taiwan Gear relies on Liebherr machines.
The first LK 500 skiving machine is in use at the Italian gear specialists SIAP. An innovative investment that will increase both productivity and quality.
It starts with a blank. But how does the workpiece get onto the line or into the machine? Depending on the state it is delivered in, this task can quickly become very complex. Reliable 3D object detection systems optically capture and evaluate data. Liebherr works with a variety of 3D vision systems to match the requirements and smoothly handles the supply of every randomly stored part with process precision.
Mit dem Gebrauchtmaschinenprogramm von Liebherr erhalten hochwertige Maschinen einen zweiten Lebenszyklus. Was tun, wenn die Maschine in die Jahre kommt, aber noch gute Dienste leistet?
