Independence, Ohio-based construction services provider ALL Cranes has obtained two Liebherr all-terrain (AT) cranes. The machines include a 600-ton Liebherr LTM 1500-8.1 and a 350-ton LTM 1300-6.2.
According to ALL Cranes, the company already owns two LTM 1500-8.1 AT cranes, which have been regularly serving jobsites in Canada and the northern part of the U.S. The 1500-8.1 is an AT crane -combining strength and mobility, notes the company.
The AT crane is suited for work at industrial job sites, such as lifting tower cans for wind farms. It is an ideal choice for customers who want a single machine to travel roads, to traverse uneven terrain at job sites and to handle heavy lifting in tight spaces. The LTM 1500-8.1 will be equipped with both long and short boom systems, allowing optimization of crane transportation logistics while still providing the desired capacity and reach.
‘In some cases, only transporting the short boom will save the customer time and money,’ says J. Hutton Strader, business development specialist for ALL Cranes. ‘And with the boom systems interchangeable between machines, that gives an added bonus in terms of flexibility.’
