The accelerating climate revolution demands drive concepts which reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. That is why our new LTC 1050-3.1 compact crane has an electric motor in addition to its conventional power unit. This enables crane movements to be powered electrically as an option. The new version of the compact 50 tonne crane therefore helps to reduce CO2 emissions and meets the requirements for operating on “zero emissions” sites. The LTC crane takes the electricity for crane operations direct from the site. The compact crane retains all its familiar properties regardless of whether it is powered by the electric motor or the internal combustion engine. If the power supply is sufficient, its performance in electrical mode is comparable with when it is powered by the engine. If the power supply is lower, the performance of the crane is reduced accordingly.
