Updated Liebherr cranes extend boom reach
14 October 2014Rieger & Moser has replaced two existing cranes in its fleet with new Liebherr mobile cranes, both with longer telescopic booms.
The Ulm, Germany-based crane company purchased a 60t LTM 1060-3.1 with a 48m telescopic boom, replacing a 23-year-old Liebherr LTM 1040-1 with a 26m boom. This will enable many jobs to be completed without the installation of a folding jib, reducing crane erection time.
Also added was a 95t LTM 1095-5.1 mobile crane with a 58m telescopic boom, hook height of 82m and working radii of up to 60m
.
This replaces an LTM 1100-1 with a 45m boom, which Rieger & Moser purchased in 1997.
