ALL Pre-Orders Two Eight-Axle Liebherr AT Cranes
November 30, 2016 - The ALL Family of Companies has preordered several new Liebherr models, including two 500-ton LTM 1450-8.1 all-terrain cranes that will be introduced at ConExpo-Con/Agg.
Featuring a 279-foot telescopic main boom and a full range of lattice jib attachments, the Liebherr 1450-8.1 can lift at and above its 500-ton capacity. The eight-axle crane was manufactured to accommodate a variety of transport weight and machine axle configurations.
“This all-terrain crane is unique, as it was designed for both ease of transport and minimal setup time, which increases efficiency before, during, and after the job,” said Hutton Strader, business development specialist for ALL. “The new VarioBallast system also gives us the flexibility to have capacity when we need it, while still allowing us to work in spaces where many other large cranes simply will not fit. We see great potential for this machine to work on wind farms, refineries, and chemical plants, as well as in setting up tower cranes.”
“We’re committed to investing in machines that will provide distinct advantages for our customers, whether in terms of strength, flexibility, mobilization, or cost effectiveness,” said Michae Liptak, president of ALL. “The LTM 1450-8.1 delivers on all of those criteria.”
