New crane to cater for larger prefabricated modules and other increasingly bid loads
Liebherr Group has announced that next week it is to launch the new Liebherr 750-tonne All Terrain crane.
The LTM 1750 will feature a 9-axle chassis and is effectively a step up from the LTM 1500 – 8.1, rather than a smaller version of the 1,200-tonne capacity LTM 11200-9.1.
The crane is designed to cater for larger prefabricated modules and other increasingly big loads. It will have a relatively short, 52-metre boom that looks heavy duty for its size.
A heavy duty extension takes the hook height to 87 metres, to which a short heavy duty luffing jib can be added to provide the 105 metre maximum hook height. Maximum counterweight is 204 tonnes.
