At Bauma 2019 Liebherr exhibited the LH 110 C Gantry Port material handling with electric drive. The machine achieves an operating weight of between 120 and 140 tonnes and is equipped with a low-emission electric engine.

The LH 110 C Gantry Port with electronic drive presented by Liebherr at Bauma 2019 is equipped for fast and economic bulk- and unit load handling. The equipment is weight-optimized particularly for handling these goods, which ensures a high load capacity. In order to cover a broad working area Liebherr offers numerous equipment varieties: the LH 110 has a working range of between 18 and 28 meters. The patented energy recovery system (ERC system) is part of the standard equipment.

The material handling machine LH 110 C Port with electric drive impresses with its extensive performance and sets new standards in terms of efficiency. With the electric engine of 300 kW, and the ERC system the machine achieves a total system performance of 478 kW. Thus, in combination with the fast and dynamic rotary motions the machine is able to handle up to 1.000 tonnes material per hour. The environmentally friendly material handling machine with electric drive is also characterized by low-maintenance, low-noise, and is free from emission standard regulations.

The new Gantry portal undercarriage enables fast and efficient loading and discharge of the passing through trucks or carriages. Thanks to the modular design, the customer can choose a passage width between 4.5 and 9.0 meters and a vertical clearance between 5.0 and 6.5 meters. At the customer’s disposal are for the undercarriage of this electric machine different connection possibilities like trailing cable or winding system, which guarantees the necessary mobility of this machine. During the development of the new Gantry undercarriage, the focus was laid on low maintenance. This could be realized thanks to optimized access to the maintenance points.

The machine is equipped with a bent boom of 14.5 m, a straight stick of 13.5 m as well as the fully automatic quick coupling system MH 110B. The machine is completed by the bulk material grapple GMZ 120 with a capacity of 4.5 m³ and by the Liebherr wood grapple GMH 120 with a grapple surface of 3.2 m². By means of the quick coupling system MH 110B the grapple can be changed in a matter of seconds comfortably and securely from the cabin. Another highlight of this machine is the double joint cabin hydraulically adjustable in height and to the front equipped with sliding door for comfortable access. Thanks to the flexible eye point, the machine operator always has perfect sight at the working area. This increases the productivity of the machine significantly.
