German crane rental company Montage und Kranservice Werner has taken delivery of a new 55 tonne Liebherr LTM 1055-3.3.
The three axle crane, which replaces an 18 year old 60 tonne Terex AC60 City, features a 40 metre main boom plus an 8.6 to 15 metre bi-fold swingaway extension for a maximum tip height of just over 58 metres while also offering up to 40 degrees of offset. Features include the Liccon3 control system, VarioBase variable outrigger setup and remote control system.
The new crane is delivered
Company owner Detlef Werner said: “When I saw the new LTM 1055-3.3 at Bauma 2025, I knew straight away. I want that one. “The nine tonne axle loads and the new axle configuration won me over immediately.”
“I operate cranes myself, the axle configuration – two at the front and one at the rear – is ideal, because you often reverse onto the construction site – you can now negotiate bends more easily and pull the boom along behind you.”

“The LTM 1055-3.3 falls within the local ‘No-Notification’ zone in accordance with VwV-StVO §29, so I am completely flexible in Berlin and Brandenburg and can respond immediately to customer enquiries without having to factor in long lead times. Even without counterweight, we can carry out a wide range of lifts. Otherwise, we transport the counterweight to site using standard trucks.”
Detlef Werne established the company, which is located on the west side of Berlin, 27 years ago. his son Ivan is now on board, helping manage the business, which runs a fleet that includes large spider cranes, loader cranes and All Terrains up to a 120 tonne LTM 1120-4.1.
