150-tonne lifting capacity: Liebherr expands its telescopic crawler crane line-up with the LTR 1150

Liebherr has expanded its range of telescopic crawler cranes with a new 150-tonne machine. The LTR 1150 is positioned exactly between the LTR 1100 and the LTR 1220. Although the new crane offers around 50 per cent more lifting capacity than the LTR 1100, it can be transported just as easily and economically as its 100-tonne sibling – complete with crawler carriers at a total weight of 60 tonnes and a transport width of 3.5 metres, or optionally without crawler carriers at a total weight of just 38 tonnes and a width of only 3.0 metres. The LTR 1150 is the first telescopic crawler crane to be equipped with the Liebherr VarioBase®, which enables the crane control to determine the optimum load capacity depending on the track width and angle of rotation.
