The freight center has been using Liebherr reachstackers for two years now.
The technology was delivered in three months from the initial negotiations and commissioning.
The machines can operate fully efficient even after 12,000 operating hours.
Reachstacker LRS 545 is equipped with a hydrostatic drive. This type of drive requires neither a torque converter nor a differential. The result is 25% lower diesel consumption compared to equivalent reachstackers.
