An overview of mobile crane technology

Efficient chassis and drive technology.

Our mobile cranes feature enormous mobility on any terrain. This is guaranteed by our high quality chassis and drive technology which also delivers maximum economy.

The crane provides the operator with extraordinary manoeuvrability – and a comfortable workplace.

Variable steering concept.

Their five steering programs make manoeuvring our cranes child’s play. Handling remains stable even at high speeds.

And what's more, active rear axle steering significantly reduces tyre wear.

LICCON smart crane control system.

We develop the software and hardware for the control system in-house. The heart of the system is the LICCON (Liebherr Computed Control) computer system. This forward-thinking control architecture enables it to adapt to the continually growing needs of the market.

What is more, Liebherr specialists continuously work on developing the system.

Remote crane control.

Our renowned Liebherr technology for more convenience, economy and safety in use: The crane operator controls the set-up processes with a clear view using the BTT remote control.

VarioBase®

VarioBase® enables each individual crane outrigger to be extended to different lengths. At the same time, the crane's work is secured by the LICCON controlled load moment limiter.

The extension length and support force of each outrigger is measured and the maximum lifting capacities for exactly this situation are calculated by the crane controller.

Powerful hydraulic system.

Hydraulic drive units and electronic control systems must be perfectly coordinated to allow large loads to be moved accurately. We develop systems tailored to each capacity class which are designed for practical applications.

Focus on safety.

A genuine Liebherr crane includes a sophisticated safety concept. The crane operator has equipment and systems for working in, on and around the crane to ensure the job can be completed safely.

Our BTT remote control and VarioBase® are ideal for this purpose.
