New Liebherr for H N Krane

Heavy lift and transport service provider H N Krane, based in north Germany, has taken delivery of a 750 tonne capacity Liebherr LTM 1750-9.1 wheeled mobile telescopic crane.

The 9-axle unit is the second LTM 1750-9.1 to be added to the H N Krane fleet. It will be used alongside the company’s LG 1750 lattice boom mobile crane for erecting wind turbines.

Mirko Schreiber, site manager large cranes at H N Krane, said, “The LTM 1750-9.1 will enable us to increase the amount of pre-assembly of wind turbines we can complete. The 750 tonne crane will also be able to carry out maintenance on the turbines.”

Company owner Herbert Nadolny attended the handover ceremony at the Liebherr plant in Ehingen, Germany.

In addition to the order, H N Krane has also ordered a new LTM 1500-8.1 with an 84 metre telescopic boom. The new 500 tonner will also be used to service wind turbines.
