Product Description

Technical and Operational Innovations

Telescopic Boom and Extensions: The LTM 1220-5.1’s primary feature is its 72-meter telescopic boom, which can be extended with additional lattice jib options, facilitating complex lifting tasks with maximum hook heights of up to 101 meters. This versatility is further enhanced by the rapid-cycle telescoping capability, allowing quick and precise adjustments during operations.
Advanced Braking System: This model was the first mobile crane globally to feature pneumatic disc brakes. Developed in collaboration with system partners, these brakes provide superior braking performance, enhanced control, and improved track stability of the vehicle, contributing to safer and more efficient operations.

Operational Efficiency and Safety

Enhanced Control Systems: The crane incorporates advanced electronic SPS crane control managed by the LICCON computer system. This setup allows for independent control of winches, slewing gear, and telescoping motions, ensuring precise handling of loads. The crane’s operation benefits from selectable speeds for lifting, luffing, and slewing, optimizing task-specific performance.
Safety and Maintenance Enhancements: The innovative braking system not only delivers better control but also extends maintenance intervals and reduces the time required for changing brake pads, significantly lowering operational costs.

Global Reach and Impact

Widespread Adoption: Since its launch, the LTM 1220-5.1 has seen significant global deployment, with over one thousand units sold. Its combination of high lifting capacity, long reach, and robust construction makes it a preferred choice in the 5-axle crane segment worldwide.
Versatility and Applications: The crane’s design and capabilities make it suitable for a wide range of applications, from construction sites and industrial projects to infrastructure developments, where high reach and heavy lifting are required.

Overall, the Liebherr LTM 1220-5.1 stands out in the heavy lifting industry for its engineering excellence, operational versatility, and safety features, making it a key asset for companies looking to handle complex lifting tasks efficiently and safely.
