Liebherr cranes are the latest in Steil

German crane company Steil Kranarbeiten has added two 500t Liebherr telescopic mobile cranes to its fleet to assist with jobs in the wind power sector.

Steil, based in Trier and currently celebrating its 90-year anniversary, purchased an LTM 1500-8.1 with an 84m telescopic boom to replace an existing 500t model.

The company, which has a fleet of 80 cranes, also added an LTM 1060-3.1 for lower-weight, regional hoisting work. The model is said to be the most powerful three-axle mobile crane available, and has a 48m telescopic boom.
