The new mobile crane replaces an LTM 1300-6.1 and is Treffler’s entry into the class of telescopic cranes with boom guying.

The spatial Y-guying - both to the rear and to the side - offers significant increases in load capacity, especially when the boom is extended long in a steep position and for jobs with lattice jibs, Liebherr said.

Branch manager Matthias Bulisch said, “With the LTM 1350-6.1, we are replacing an LTM 1300-6.1. On the one hand, the investment in the new crane follows our rhythm for fleet renewal, and on the other hand, we are strengthening our portfolio. The new crane has a Y-type telescopic boom guying and is therefore significantly stronger than its predecessor.”

The company has been part of the MaxiKraft Group since 2019 and has been investing in its fleet.

“With the new crane, we can take on jobs in the 400 tonne class. We deliberately chose a 6 axle crane because it has advantages in approval processes, compared to 7 to 9 axle cranes,” Bulisch said. “We bought the LTM 1350-6.1 fully equipped.”

The crane will be used for a variety of industrial operations as well as construction crane assemblies.
