Efficient crane jobs and low cost crane operation

Perfectly designed: Low cost crane operation

Total efficiency in action.

Down to the very last detail:

Carefully designed set-up concepts.

Speed, safety and comfort – those are our objectives when we design the support process, ballast installation and the attachment of additional equipment. The BTT remote control ensures the erection work can be carried out with a perfect view.

Special equipment enables the cranes to self-erect –

the ballasting, erection of the second hoist gear or mounting of the fixed jib can be completed efficiently on many types of cranes without requiring an auxiliary crane.

A small adjustment with a massive effect:

VarioBallast®

On some LTM models, the ballast radius can be changed quickly and easily using a simple adjustment. The small radius is very useful in constricted working environments. The mobile cranes achieve maximum lifting capacities with the large radius.

This delivers flexibility which also quickly pays dividends during transport to the site.

Lower fuel consumption + less noise = ECOmode

On our mobile cranes which have a load sensing control system, the crane operator enters the required operating speed using the master switch – using ECOmode. The perfect engine speed is calculated by the LICCON 2 control system and set on the crane's engine by the engine management system. Successful:

Up to 10 % lower fuel consumption
Lower noise emissions

Higher lifting capacity in constricted areas:

VarioBase®

Working on sites often means constricted conditions. VarioBase® allows each individual crane outrigger to be extended to any length. The LICOON controller's load moment limiter makes the crane's work safe. The multi-award-winning system thus allows the crane to be used flexibly and efficiently.

VarioBase® also delivers higher lifting capacities and a larger working area.
