Liebherr LG1750 for H.N. Krane

German based crane rental and heavy trasnport company H.N. Krane of Groß Schwaß near Rostock, has taken delivery of a new Liebherr LG1750 truck mounted lattice boomed crane – the first lattice crane in its fleet.

The company - H.N. Krane Nadolny & Schulze to give it is full name – purchased the crane for its growing wind farm business, joining two big Liebherr telescopics, a 500 tonne LTM 1500-8.1 and a 1,200 tonne LTM 11200-9.1, which are mostly used on wind power installations.

The new crane, the largest truck mounted lattice boom crane made, was ordered with a 400 tonne boom nose and hook block, plus SL7DHS boom configuration with back mast and special six metre heavy duty offset boom tip for wind power work.

An example of the LG 1750’s capability that makes it well suited to wind turbine work is the fact that it can lift 85 tonnes to 153 metres.
Owner Herbert Nadolny said: “The performance parameters of the LG 1750 are unbeatable in its class.
