750 tonner for Kran Saller

German crane rental and haulage company Kran Saller has taken delivery of a 750 tonne Liebherr LTM 1750-9.1 All Terrain crane.

The nine axle LTM 1750 features a 52 metre main boom and up to 91 metres of lattice jib. With a maximum working radius of 112 metres, it can lift its full capacity at a three metre radius. Its first job was erecting 89 metre concrete towers for twelve wind turbines at a wind farm in Schlitz, near Fulda.

Sascha Wolf, Kran Saller project manager, said: "The LTM 1750-9.1 is the only crane in this load capacity class which can erect the concrete towers for Max Bögl towers. The next project has already been planned for the LTM 1750-9.1 to go straight to the Hohenstein wind farm near Wiesbaden to erect three wind turbines.”
