Product Range

Many years of experience in the construction of maritime cranes is one of Liebherr’s core competences. Constant technical
progress ensures innovative and fl exible solutions orientated towards customer requirements.

The Liebherr FCC/TCC series is designed for the fl exible
handling of dry bulk, general cargoes and containers in both
sea and domestic ports. Low initial outlay as well as minimum
running and maintenance costs round off the operational pro­fi le of the FCC/TCC series.

Modularity

The Liebherr port crane concept is distinguished by its unique modularity. Three different crane types and two different substructures
are available. Under consideration of the infrastructure and individual needs of the port the optimum combination can be determined.

FCC – Fixed Cargo Crane

The FCCs are fi tted on fi xed pedestals. Due to their slender design
they are especially suitable for operation on narrow quaysides.
Thanks to jib lengths of up to 36 m vessels and barges can be
effi ciently loaded and unloaded from a fi xed position.

TCC – Travelling Cargo Crane

TCCs are fi tted on rail-mounted travelling gantries. A system of
parallel tracks under the gantry enables travel along the length
of the quayside. This means relocation of the vessels and barges
is not necessary during loading and unloading of cargoes, thus
improving effi ciency.

7

Applications

Whether container, general cargo or dry bulk handling Liebherr port cranes can meet a wide variety of cargo demands
ranging from universal to special applications.

Container and General Cargo Handling

No matter what type of vessel thanks to the various jib lengths
Liebherr port cranes invariably fulfi l your needs. With up to 25
cycles per hour vessels and barges can be quickly and effi ciently
loaded or unloaded.
For container and general cargo handling the cranes can
be equipped with a rotator. Manual, semi or fully automatic
spreaders are available for all regular container sizes.

Dry Bulk Handling

Various types of grab, ranging from motor grab up to four­rope grab, can be easily fi tted and operated. Liebherr’s
leading position in dry bulk handling is emphasized by its high
performance crane series 300 and 350 offering the following
benefi ts:

s¬ classifi ed for 360 days 24 hours continuous operation
s¬ up to 45 cycles per hour
s¬ operation of all 3 motions simultaneously at full load/full speed
s¬ continuously variable speed control from zero to max. speed
s¬ independent closed hydraulic circuits for each crane motion

FCC – Confi guration and Installation

Practical Application

Liebherr port cranes are tailor-made to meet individual customer requirements and are especially suitable for operation on narrow
quaysides thanks to their compact design and the following features:

s¬ economical and robust pedestal design
s¬ point reinforcement of the quayside keeps the foundation costs at a minimum
s¬ relatively low forces and moments affect the crane’s pedestal making dense

positioning of the cranes on the quayside possible

s¬ electric components are protected from the environment

Pedestal

The upper pedestal of the crane is welded to the lower pedestal,
enabling straightforward and uncomplicated installation of the
cranes.

Power Supply

An external electric cable provides power for the electro­hydraulic cranes. This cable is embedded in the quayside and is
lead through the inside of the lower pedestal to the terminal box
on the slipring.

TCC – Confi guration and Installation

Gantry Design

Based on many years of experience in gantry construction, Liebherr designs and manufactures tailor-made gantries to meet the
requirements of individual port infrastructures.

s¬ the width of the gantry is determined by the rail span
s¬ the working height of the gantry and the TCC port crane is optimized to suit the types of vessels to be handled
s¬ the clearance height of the gantry depends on the transport requirements on the quayside. For example, TCCs in intermodal

ports can be designed to enable the free movement of trucks and rail-mounted vehicles under the gantry in order to allow for
improved cargo clearance

s¬ the number of bogies is dependent on the type of crane and the maximum permissible wheel load on the quayside
s¬ counterweights are necessary where rail spans are narrow in order to reduce overturning moment and ensure safe operation and

stability

Installation

s¬ gantry drives are electrically powered

s¬ prevailing forces and moments are evenly distributed to all

wheels on the gantry and so absorbed by the quay foundation

s¬ crane can be either central or side-mounted depending on

cargo handling requirements

s¬ safe and direct access to the driver’s cab via stairway and

ladders

s¬ gantries are optionally fi tted with a mechanical locking device

in order to prevent gantry travel during gales/storms

Power Supply

An external electric cable provides power for the electro-hydraulic
travelling cargo cranes. This cable is embedded in the quayside
and leads to the TCC through a cable guide which should be
positioned in the middle of the quayside in order to optimize the
size of the cable drum.

The Liebherr Group –
Partner for the Future

Today, Liebherr is among the leading manufacturers in the fi elds of hoisting technology and materials handling equipment. The name
Liebherr stands for products and services. It has become a synonym for ideas and innovations.

Liebherr – A Family Enterprise

In family-operated companies, ownership merges with active
entrepreneurship. This results in characteristic principles.
Liebherr is both a family business and a corporation. This does
not have to be a contradiction, as the continuous success and
steady growth prove.
To create top products, the development capacities and pro­duction facilities must measure up to the highest standards. This
requires substantial investments. From stable locations, Liebherr
is following a solidly fi nanced expansion course. The profi ts

made are almost entirely retained within the Group. This provides
ample scope for extensive investments. The economic power of
the Liebherr Group is best shown by its unusually high equity
ratio of more than 50%. This sound economic basis makes
Liebherr highly independent in its strategic decisions, and it
provides an important basis for future investment and innovation
strategies. Offering high-quality products and services which are
aimed towards customers’ needs remains the benchmark.

18

Mastering Key Technologies Decentralized and International,

In view of the high quality that Liebherr demands of its pro­ducts, mastering key technologies internally and keeping core
competencies in-house has always been of great importance
to the company. Therefore, Liebherr develops and produces
crucial components, such as the entire propulsion and control
technology, themselves. Further examples are hydraulic
components, slip ring elements, and diesel engines. Here, Group
suppliers are measured against the best and most effi cient
external provider.

Based on Tradition

Operating effi ciently in manageable, self-dependent units and
aiming strategically at emerging markets have always formed
part of the basic business principles. Thus, Liebherr regularly
invests substantially in further marketing and service companies
as well as in new production sites. Entering and expanding
into new markets means being locally available to assure the
customer receives full and lasting manufacturer support.
While maintaining the proven decentralized organizational form,
a divisional company structure, whose international expansion is
being carried forward, was implemented globally.
