The LHM 500 won the prestigious award in 2010, while Liebherr’s LHM 280 model received the accolade the year prior.
Liebherr’s Senior Design Manager, Walter Mietschnig collected the award on behalf of the company at Antwerp’s Hilton Hotel.
The ‘Crane of the Year’ is decided by a total of sixteen experienced experts in the Maritime Bulk Industry.

The LPS 600 is described by the company as “the flagship” of its product line, running on either a diesel or an electric engine (prime mover), or through the combined power of each system with the new Pactronic hybrid drive.
