Liebherr to show its new LTM 1300-6.2 six-axle Mobile Crane at the 2014 Conexpo

Liebherr will be showing its new 300 tonne (360 US-tons) mobile crane on a six-axle chassis at the Conexpo Con/Agg 2014. The LTM 1300-6.2 was unveiled at the Bauma 2013 and replaces the 250-tonne (300 US-tons) LTM 1250-6.1. Its 78 m (256 ft) telescopic boom means that this new six-axle mobile crane offers an additional 6 m (20 ft) in length over its predecessor. In addition its load capacity has been increased dramatically. The new LTM 1300-6.2 from Liebherr is the most powerful mobile crane in the 300 tonne (360 US-tons) class available on the market.

Liebherr to unveil its new LTM 1160-5.2 five-axle Mobile Crane at the Conexpo 2014

Liebherr will be unveiling a new 160-tonne (190 US-ton) mobile crane on a five-axle chassis, the successor to the LTM 1160-5.1, at the Conexpo Con/Agg 2014 in Las Vegas, USA. The load capacity of the new LTM 1160-5.2 has been increased by around 20-25% compared to its predecessor whilst the telescopic boom has remained at the same length of 62 m (203 ft). The vehicle width has been reduced from 3 m to 2.75 m (9’10’’ to 9’) which means that not only it is easier to drive on public roads but also considerably better on constricted sites. The superstructure of the new LTM 1160-5.2 is powered by the engine in the crane chassis using a mechanical shaft. This makes the new 5-axle vehicle the second crane model to feature the innovative single-engine drive concept which Liebherr first presented at the Bauma 2013 for the LTM 1300-6.2.
