Liebherr USA, Co. will exhibit at Inland Marine Expo (IMX) 2026, taking place May 27-29, 2026, in Nashville, Tennessee. The event brings together inland marine and port professionals from across the country to explore equipment, technologies, and services supporting operations along America’s waterways.
Held at the Music City Center in Nashville, Inland Marine Expo (IMX) provides a forum for collaboration across the inland marine industry. Liebherr will be in attendance located at booth #1034, where attendees can meet with product specialists to discuss material handling solutions designed for port and river environments including equipment configurations that support efficient cargo handling, safe operations, and long-term performance in inland marine applications.
Liebherr will highlight its LH 80 Port and LH 110 Port material handling machines, both developed for the demands of port operations. These machines support a variety of cargo handling tasks and are suited for vessel, barge, and dockside applications where reach, stability, and lifting capacity are critical.
The LH 80 Port and LH 110 Port are designed with weight optimized structures to support strong performance while maintaining efficient operating characteristics. A modular design approach allows each machine to be configured to meet specific operational requirements through a range boom and stick options, attachment selections, and available elevated cab configurations, including the High Rise option for improved visibility across working areas.
Built on decades of material handling experience, Liebherr’s port machines are engineered to adapt to changing operational needs while supporting consistent productivity in port and inland marine environments.

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.
