The Liebherr LR 1300.1 SX crawler crane turns 18 this year. Much like a person's 18th birthday marks the transition to adulthood, this milestone represents the coming of age for one of Liebherr's most successful products.
First unveiled at Bauma 2007, this versatile machine has since established itself as a true industry standard. Today, nearly 1,000 units are in operation worldwide, and the crawler crane is now also available in a battery-powered version. The success of the LR 1300.1 SX shows how thoughtful engineering, continuous improvement and a deep understanding of customer needs can create an industry standard that remains relevant and in demand even 18 years after its debut.
What made this crawler crane an icon and where the very first LR 1300.1 SX is still in use today can be discovered in the magazine.
