    Advantages at a glance

    Value-for-money alternative

    If terminals reach the limits of their capacity, LBS floating cranes are optimal alternatives to cost-intensive, infrastructure-related modifications to the quayside.

    Space-saving installation

    Floating-cranes are autonomous units that require no harbour area at all and can be operated anywhere in the harbour water area.

    Back-up for land-based cranes

    Another area in which the LBS-series can be deployed is in the support of land-based cranes, particularly to relieve load during peak times.
