Dutch crane contractor Schot Verticaal Transport has ordered twelve new mobile cranes from Liebherr. The company wishes to extend and modernise its fleet. The cranes will be delivered within the next 12 months.
Crane contractor Schot Verticaal Transport has developed extremely quickly over the last few years. The steady rise in orders received has led to Schot investing in new cranes to increase its crane capacity.
The new order to Liebherr includes two LTF 1060-4.1 60-tonne truck-mounted telescopic cranes, three LTM 1070-4.2 mobile cranes, three LTM 1130-5.1 cranes, one LTM 1200-5.1, one LTM 1300-6.2, one LTM 1400-7.1 and an MK 88 mobile construction crane.
Schot Verticaal Transport' Managing Director Roel van der Heide explains: “We have been working with Liebherr for many years here in the Netherlands and have a very good relationship. Liebherr provides the best service in the world and the cranes offer good value for money. That has led to us extending our fleet with Liebherr cranes.”

Liebherr is increasing the overall service life of its Fibre ropes from 14 to 16 years, with the decisive period of use rising to up to 12 years. This is based on multi-year ageing trials on test rigs and analyses of ropes already in field. The new ruling applies automatically to all new ropes and those already in the field. This step forms part of Liebherr's ongoing path towards establishing Fibre technology as the new standard in the tower crane market.
