1. Independently operated machine
The MK mobile construction crane is designed so that one operator can do it all. Drive it to the site, set it up, and start lifting. It’s a true one-man machine built for speed, efficiency, and independence on the job.
Integrated technologies like an advanced remote-control system and automated leveling streamline every step of the process. Real time diagnostics and built in safety features ensure smooth operation while minimizing risk of error. The MK crane empowers a single operator to perform with precision and confidence.
2. Flexible transport and lift solution
Known as a “taxi crane,” the MK mobile construction crane is always ready to go with no need for additional trucks or setup teams. It’s driven to the site, sets up fast, and gets right to work. Due to its compact design and excellent maneuverability, the MK mobile construction crane can easily navigate tight urban spaces, allowing for fast, hassle-free transport.
3. Handles lifts beyond building footprints
The Liebherr MK machines are perfect for working on interfering building edges, including rooftops, parking garages, or overhangs. With their long horizontal reach and upward jib angles, they can safely lift loads up and over obstacles.
4. Applicable across different construction needs
The MK mobile construction cranes are designed to be used in a variety of areas, such as urban and night sites, refineries and chemical plants, roof refurbishment, installation of solar panels and skylights, prefabricated component and house construction, maintenance and repair work, bridge and road building, and steel construction. Wherever lifting is needed, the MK mobile construction crane can be there.
5. Designed for tight jobsites
Urban construction sites are crowded and chaotic, but the MK’S compact design and tight slewing radius and flexible outrigger options make it a pro at squeezing into crowded city streets, narrow alleys, and jobsites where space is limited. It’s the perfect machine for operations in places other cranes just can’t go.

More experience, more confidence: six questions on the new period of use for Liebherr fibre ropes
Liebherr is increasing the period of use of its fibre ropes to up to 12 years in temperate climates and up to 8 years in hot climates, while the overall service life is rising from 14 to 16 years. But what's behind this decision, and why do all ropes already in the field benefit too? Six questions for Jochen Huber, Product Manager Fibre Technology at Liebherr, on the tests, the impact for customers on site, and the wider strategy behind Fibre technology.

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.
