Mexican crane company GMVykon has added a 750t, nine-axle Liebherr LTM 1750-9.1 all terrain crane to its fleet.

The purchase of the crane, supplied by Liebherr's factory at Monterrey, represented the first delivery of an LTM 1750-9.1 into the country. It is also the largest crane in GMVykon's fleet, which comprises more than 100 cranes including rough terrains, truck cranes and all terrains.

The first job completed by the crane was installation work at a steel mill, with its next project set to be in the crude oil industry.

GMVykon proprietor José Cortez said: "The modern design of the crane, the fact that it can be driven with the boom and its enormous load capacities and hoist heights make it an ideal crane for us, since we operate on a wide range of sites in Monterrey and throughout Mexico.

"Mexico has good prospects with many large infrastructure, industry and energy projects. Modern, safe cranes will help us to complete these projects."
