Liebherr MK 140 mobile construction crane: High handling capacity in the capital of Bavaria

The Liebherr MK 140 mobile construction crane operated by Schmidbauer GmbH & Co. KG was recently involved in roofing work in Munich. A radius of 58m was required to hoist the roofing material weighing up to 1.9 tonnes onto the 36m high building in the capital of Bavaria.

The programme-controlled assembly process is extremely safe.

Schmidbauer GmbH & Co. KG, a system service provider for hoisting and transportation, also used its MK 140 mobile construction crane to complete roofing work on a new-build logistics centre in the east of Munich. Thanks to the vertical tower typical of the MK series, the entire length of the jib could be used despite the overhanging edges of the building. The largest model of the MK range was required to hoist the 1.9 t trapezoidal plates with a radius of 58 m to a height of 36 m. The high handling capacity of this mobile crane system was particularly beneficial for this large building.
