The Liebherr LRT cranes – the safe alternative

Going rough: Off-road cranes for the rough terrain

Liebherr has extended its mobile crane product range with an additional series of rough-terrain cranes in the 90-tonne (100 USt) and 100-tonne (110 USt) classes. The Liebherr Rough-Terrain cranes LRT 1090-2.1 and LRT 1100-2.1 were unveiled to the public at the Conexpo construction machinery trade show in Las Vegas in 2017. Key features are safety, high performance and operator comfort.

The development of the new generation of Liebherr rough-terrain cranes was preceded by extensive market surveys and analyses into the requirements for modern RT cranes. In addition to the capacity of the cranes, their safety, particularly their safety resulting from ease of operation, was one of the main focal points for the development of the new cranes.

"Safety first" - safety equipment sets new standards

High safety levels in every respect were the main priority for the design of the new Liebherr LRT cranes. Both new crane models feature an outrigger monitoring system as standard. The support status, on tyres or outriggers, is detected automatically and saved to the crane controller. The attachment of the ballast to the turntable and the installation of the optional double folding jib including its angle adjustment are also recorded and monitored.

The VarioBase® variable support base developed by Liebherr as standard on the new LRT cranes makes an important contribution to enhancing safety. VarioBase® allows each individual outrigger beam to be extended to arbitrary lengths. The crane work is controlled by the load moment limiter within the LICCON controller which calculates the maximum load capacities precisely for the current situation. This prevents accidents by human error during the assembly process and when hoisting loads.

Always safe: the crane control with the outrigger monitoring system.

VarioBase, a leading mobile crane technology, comes as standard

in the LRTs’.

The new Liebherr Rough Terrain Cranes provide high lifting capacities with a maximum of safety due to VarioBase®. They feature excellent off-road capability and guarantee superb manoeuvrability using their all-wheel steering.The new Rough Terrain Cranes are very simple and easy to operate. The extra wide and tiltable crane cabin is comfortable for the operator and the operation is very user-friendly.

The safe alternative: The Liebherr Rough Terrain Cranes feature standard global load charts according to ANSI, EN, GOST and AS.

So global safety regulations are supported right from the start. Learn more about the safety features in this walk-around movie.
