利勃海尔 '1949–至今

The history of the Liebherr Group began back in 1949 in the small town of Kirchdorf an der Iller in Southern Germany. The founder of the company, Dr.-Ing. E. h. Hans Liebherr (April 1, 1915 - October 7, 1993) put an idea into practice which had occupied his mind for a long time during the day-to-day work of running a small construction business: to tackle the major task of rebuilding Germany after the Second World War a tower crane capable of easy assembly and transport was required.

The rapid success of this first patented Liebherr crane created a firm foundation for the Liebherr Group. From these humble beginnings an extensive crane program rapidly emerged, and grew in later years into a construction machinery program that is unsurpassed in its extent and variety. In addition to tower cranes the product range also includes mobile crane, crawler crane, hydraulic excavator, duty cycle crawler crane, dumper truck, wheel loader, crawler tractor and loader, pipe layer, concrete mixing plant, truck mixer and truck mounted concrete pump model lines.

Liebherr also supplies extensive product families in many other sectors. For cargo handling there are ship, offshore, container and harbour mobile cranes; in plant and equipment construction, Liebherr is a supplier of machine tools and automation systems, in the aircraft equipment sector Liebherr supplies landing gear, actuation and air-management systems and in the traffic technology sector equipment for rail vehicles. In the domestic appliances sector Liebherr is a specialist in the production of refrigerators and freezers.
