Liebherr launches straddle carrier
The one-over-three diesel electric vehicle has single and twin-lift capacity of 40.6 tonnes and 50 tonnes respectively under the spreader, which has full side-to-side shift of +/- 290 mm and a seven degree maximum skew.
With a working full-load lift speed of 18m/min and 26m/min with empties, the vehicle has a top driving speed of 25kph. It is powered by a Volvo-Penta Stage IIIA compliant T8012 engine, producing a continuous power output of 375 Kw from the gen-set.

As a result, the driver’s cab uses drive-by wire technology for steering and braking.
