Liebherr flagship for Movitram

Colombian crane rental company Movitram Gruas has taken delivery of a 220 tonne Liebherr LTM 1220-5.2 All Terrain crane.

The five axle LTM 1220-5.2 is equipped with a 60 metre main boom plus a 12.2 to 22 metre bi-fold swing-away extension with 0, 22.5 and 45 degree offsets. It is now the largest crane in Movitram's fleet.

Managing director Carlos Enrique Parra Ibagon said: "Crane jobs in Colombia are becoming more and more complex and therefore require sophisticated, top quality technology which must be combined with high lifting capacities, reliability and above all economy. Liebherr mobile cranes satisfy these requirements in full. Since my factory visit to Ehingen, I have been completely convinced of that."

"The variable VarioBase support base provides our customers with higher lifting capacity and greater flexibility in restricted site conditions. The 22 metre folding extension makes the crane the most powerful five axle machine in the region and the perfect investment for erecting our own tower cranes, for example."
