LED cubes instead of concrete blocks, Roman antiquity instead of modern apartments, culture instead of construction sites: Liebherr cranes help to build and dismantle sets, and are even sometimes part of the production, so that theatres across Europe are never left with an empty stage. From bottom- and top-slewing cranes to mobile construction cranes, various machine types have impressed with their intelligent assistance systems, long reach and high load capacity in Verona, Frankfurt and Bregenz this season.
Earthmoving and canal work as well as the preparation of ski slopes will be the tasks of the new R 926 G8 crawler excavator at SATP. For almost ten years, the family-owned company has relied on the quality and user-friendliness of Liebherr machines. Last but not least, the high availability of spare parts and the responsiveness of Ets PIC - the local sales partner - makes all the difference.
Feickert Bauunternehmen have been providing quality work in civil and special civil engineering for more than 70 years – and do so using powerful and high-quality earthmoving machines from Liebherr. Half of the comprehensive machine fleet of Feickert which includes around 220 machines are Liebherr machines.
Mikschl Autokrane GmbH based in Aichach has taken delivery of a new Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1 mobile crane. The Bavarian contractor is expanding its crane fleet with the 120 tonne machine. The extremely compact design of the 4-axle crane and its high lifting capacities were major factors behind the decision to buy the new crane.
Mazeau Recyclage was looking for a new materials handler to improve the site’s productivity and reduce boat loading times. This one is an addition to the existing Liebherr A 944 C HD High Rise Litronic handling machine. The LH 80 M High Rise is being used in the Paris region for materials handling tasks at Mazeau Recyclage’s Gennevilliers centre.
It’s essential for crane operators to have key operating settings in view at all times to ensure safe and precise lifting – and these need to be presented with clarity. Along with its intuitive TC-OS user interface, the new-generation EMS-4 brings together these two requirements in a twelve-inch display.
The family-run BTB Group Berlin offers everything from earthmoving to recycling from a single supplier. Three new Liebherr L 586 XPower® wheel loaders have recently been added to the company's fleet. They replace L 580 XPower® machines purchased in 2017, which have performed reliably.
It is the end of an era, both for the general management of Liebherr-France SAS and for the entire Liebherr Group. Martin Schickel is retiring after more than 44 years with the company.
