Areas of application of transshipment solutions

As the size of transport vessels continues to grow, they do not always have access to quays and port berths. Consequently dry bulk handling is being relocated to the open sea. Transshipment cranes from Liebherr combine all of the properties necessary for efficient goods handling outside sheltered waters: they are fast, safe and robust.

Due to the restricted space in harbour and quayside areas, space-saving material handling equipment for port logistics is becoming increasingly important. Liebherr transshipment cranes can be deployed flexibly on barges and pontoons, which make them the optimal enhancement for permanently-installed harbour crane systems.
