Largest mobile harbour crane in the world in transit to Rotterdam
rhb stevedoring & warehousing purchases unique 208 ton harbour crane
The Rotterdam-based stevedore rhb stevedoring & warehousing has purchased a Liebherr LHM 600 S for loading and unloading heavy industrial break bulk and project cargo. This, the largest and heaviest mobile harbour crane in the world is unique in Europe. With its 208 ton lifting capacity, the crane has seven times the lifting capacity of a conventional crane. Furthermore, the crane is fast and flexible which means ship loading and unloading times can be significantly shortened. The new crane will be shipped fully ready-for-use from the factory on a ro-ro deck barge and is expected to arrive at Waalhaven North Side 4 in Rotterdam around 23/24 September 2008. According to the current schedule, the crane will travel from the deck barge to rhb’s quay entirely under its own power on Saturday 27 September 2008, at about 12 noon.
Conventional cranes have a limited capacity for handling heavy industrial break bulk and project cargo such as motors, transformers, wind turbines and factory components. Aside from its enormous 208 ton lifting capacity, the additional advantage of the Liebherr LHM 600 S is that the crane is fast and flexible. The mobile crane has 13 axles and one hundred and four wheels and can be deployed on any segment of rhb’s 730 metre long quay. The improved crane capacity will contribute to a further increase in the handling of project cargo in the Port of Rotterdam.
Rhb stevedoring & warehousing was established in 1930 and is one of the oldest stevedores in Rotterdam. Rhb has its own 730 metre quay, 15,000 square metres of warehousing space and 30,000 square metres of open space.
