Beside industrial assemblies the new 500 tonne crane is earmarked for the erection of wind mill towers and the exchange of blades and gearboxes of the wind power generators.
The company replaced a 500t mobile from a competing manufacturer, according to Liebherr. Director Frank Bruns states that the shorter erection time for the Liebherr crane, and therefore a faster relocation on the job site, was a major factor in the choice. “I feel confident of the efficiency of the LTM 1500-8.1 for the complete working range”, Bruns said. “My crane driver is thrilled by the logical and clear operability of the superstructure”.
The company Bruns with its more than 60 employees has been in operation since 1972.
