The South Korean crane rental company Wooricrane Co. Ltd. is expanding its portfolio with two mobile construction cranes from Liebherr. The purchase agreement for a new MK 140-5.1 and a new MK 88-4.1 was signed at Bauma 2022. It is the first MK 88-4.1 that Liebherr has sold to South Korea.
The powerful new machines will mainly be used for maintenance work on existing plants and facilities. „Liebherr convinced us with its high quality and the innovative MK concept,“ says Park Hong-Shin, owner of Wooricrane Co. Ltd. „This will enable us to support our important customers like Samsung even better.“
Liebherr mobile construction cranes can be erected and dismantled within a few minutes. Only one person is needed for assembly, operation and driving. This flexible taxi crane concept enables several operations on the same day. Thanks to their vertical tower, MKs easily overcome interfering edges and can work close to the building. The hybrid power concept enables purely electric crane operation on the construction site for zero emissions.

Notas de prensa
Liebherr aumenta de 14 a 16 años la vida útil total de sus cables de fibra, mientras que el periodo de utilización, un factor decisivo, se amplía hasta 12 años. La medida se basa en varios años de ensayos de envejecimiento en bancos de pruebas y en análisis de cables utilizados en condiciones reales. La nueva regulación se aplica automáticamente a todos los cables nuevos y a los que ya están en servicio.
