One of Liebherr-Australia’s South Australian customers, Max Cranes have taken ownership of the largest All-Terrain Mobile Crane manufactured by Liebherr-Werk Ehingen GmbH (LWE), and boasts the biggest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
MAX and its heavy lift team will be operating in servicing and maintaining the fast erecting wind farm parks and utilising the machine for general heavy lifting on major projects around the country.
Their decision towards the LTM 11200-9.1 was its flexibility, long reach and great capacity of maximum 1,200t, which allows MAX to expand its capabilities in construction and the maintenance of wind towers nationally.
After weeks of intensive training with two specialised trainers from Liebherr’s Mobile and Crawler Crane factory, MAX Cranes took delivery of the machine prior to their open day launch in Port Augusta in late November. With over 300 people in attendance, MAX’s commitment and enthusiasm about heavy lifting on this machine was inspirational. The day after the launch, they opened their doors to school children and the public to experience this remarkable piece of machinery.
Liebherr is proud and excited to support MAX on their way to success with their new LTM 11200-9.1.
