Memorial against war and destruction

After 17 years under construction, the Frauenkirche in Dresden was completed in 1743 – and was then destroyed in just 2 days at the end of the Second World War in 1945. A small part remained as a ruin and memorial until reconstruction commenced in 1994. The new building was completed in 2005, financed mainly by support groups and donations from all over the world. An LG 1550 positioned the dome with its cupola cross to mark the end of the construction work.

Europe’s largest infrastructure project at the current time is Grand Paris – the expansion and continuation of the Paris Metro involving 68 new stations and doubling the rail network. LG series cranes are permanent action here, for example hoisting bridges and assembling tunnel drilling machines.

An LG 1750 installs a falling film evaporator to increase production of wheat starch at a factory in Lower Austria.

There is a large selection of boom configurations for the LG 1750 which have been specially enhanced for use in the wind industry. The latest generation of wind turbines with hub heights of up to 166 m can be erected using the SX system. The extending SX2 or SX3 boom kits enable lifting capacity is to be increased even further.
