On the opening day of Bauma, Liebherr-Werk Nenzing GmbH handed over the key for a brand new HS 8070 to the Spanish family-run company Cimentaciones Abando. The duty cycle crawler crane in the 70 tonnes category covers most site work for the company and impresses primarily due to its speed, economy and flexibility. Cimentaciones Abando uses the machine mainly for diaphragm wall works with mechanical grabs.
In 1991, Javier Abando, as one of the first Liebherr customers in Spain, purchased a HS 841. Owing to the quality of the machines and the reliable customer services, the trust in the portfolio of the HS range has remained to this day. With the new HS 8070, Cimentaciones Abando now has its tenth Liebherr duty cycle crawler crane in its fleet. Today the Spanish family-run company is represented in the 2nd generation by Anne and Julen Abando.
