Two Liebherr Tower Cranes Drive Major Housing Project in Ulm

A major urban development project featuring 142 new residential units, an underground car park, and a supermarket is underway in Ulm, with two Liebherr EC-B tower cranes playing a central role in construction efficiency and precision.

The project, located at the corner of Karlsstraße and Neutorstraße, is being supported by Nagel Baumaschinen Ulm GmbH, a long-standing Liebherr sales and service partner, which has supplied both cranes from its rental fleet.

Given the limited site space, the project team selected the 370 EC-B 16 Fibre and 202 EC-B 10 Litronic models — both known for their compact design, power, and reliability.

The 370 EC-B 16 Fibre, mounted on a portal, delivers a 55-metre radius and 53.5-metre hook height, ideal for demanding lifts. Featuring Liebherr’s innovative fibre rope technology, the crane achieves up to 40% higher load capacity and offers a service life four times longer than conventional steel ropes. Its robust fibre rope construction ensures durability, while Liebherr’s modular service system enables on-site repairs, minimizing downtime.

Complementing it is the 202 EC-B 10 Litronic, mounted on foundation anchors with a 45-metre radius and 48-metre hook height. Its space-saving upper carriage, which integrates the slewing gear, slewing ring, and switchgear, makes it particularly suitable for tight urban construction sites.

“The construction teams are highly satisfied with the cranes’ performance and efficiency,” said a Nagel Baumaschinen Ulm GmbH spokesperson. “We’ve supported the client from site planning to crane assembly, ensuring smooth operations throughout.”

Through close collaboration with Nagel Baumaschinen, Liebherr reinforces its position as a trusted partner for complex urban developments, providing advanced lifting solutions that combine innovation, strength, and precision.

The Ulm project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2025, further showcasing Liebherr’s role in enabling sustainable and efficient city construction.
