Finnish crane rental company E. Helaakoski has taken delivery of an 800 tonne Liebherr LTM 1750-9.1 All Terrain crane.
The nine axle crane travels with its 52 metre main boom and once on site up to 91 metres of lattice extensions can be added along with the Y-guying Superlift system to achieve a maximum tip height of just under 160 metres with the main boom extended to 49 metres, a 19 metre extension between the boom nose and jib pivot point with the full 91 metres of luffing jib. The maximum radius is 116 metres at which it can handle 1.81 tonnes. The capacity on the fully telescoped main boom is just under 100 tonnes - or 208 tonnes with the Y-Guy system installed.
The new crane will primarily work on wind turbine installation, maintenance, infrastructure projects and industrial lifting applications.
E. Helaakoski chief executive Lasse Helaakoski said: “This investment supports the growth of our company and offers us even better conditions to meet the needs of our customers in Finland and in international projects. We are looking forward to the arrival of the new crane!"
