Prangl lifts warehouse worker
23 August 2018Prangl used a Liebherr LTM 1350-6.1 with a 42m luffing jib to install several large storage and retrieval vehicles in a new high-bay shelving warehouse in Frastanz, Austria.
The storage and retrieval vehicles weighing around 10t had to be positioned precisely for installation through openings in the roof of a newly built high-bay shelving warehouse. The 28m elements were swung into a vertical position using a Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1 mobile crane, which also completed the set-up work on the larger mobile crane. A total of eight of these storage and retrieval vehicles had to be hoisted into the modern industrial building at radii of up to 40m.
To complete this job, the LTM 1350-6.1 was assembled with a 42m luffing jib and ballasted with counterweights weighing a total of 100t. Oliver Thum, crane expert in Prangl Technical External Services Department, was very satisfied with how smoothly the job was completed.
