Product Description
Technological Advancements
In May 2014, at the MaskinExpo, Liebherr featured the LTM 1130-5.1 equipped with the VarioBase system, first introduced at Bauma 2013 in Munich. This advanced system allows each outrigger to be extended to a different length, providing greater flexibility and enabling higher lifting capacities. The VarioBase technology significantly enhances the crane’s operational capabilities, particularly in tight and restricted job sites, by optimizing the crane’s footprint and maximizing its lifting potential within confined spaces.
Crane Specifications and Features
- Crane Carrier: The carrier of the LTM 1130-5.1 is built with a self-manufactured, torsion-resistant box-type frame from high-tensile structural steel, accompanied by a sophisticated 4-point outrigger system. The chassis is equipped with a 6-cylinder Liebherr diesel engine that delivers 370 kW (503 hp), paired with a state-of-the-art ZF AS-TRONIC automated transmission.
- Crane Superstructure: The superstructure boasts a 60-meter telescopic boom, one of the longest in its class, and can be complemented with a 19-meter folding fly-jib that is hydraulically adjustable between 0° to 40°. The crane also includes a sophisticated LICCON control system with advanced safety features, ensuring comprehensive safety and operational reliability.
- Operational Flexibility: The introduction of the VarioBase system allows the LTM 1130-5.1 to achieve extraordinary lifting capacities and an extended working range. This system is particularly effective in ensuring safety and flexibility on job sites with spatial constraints, making the crane a preferred choice for urban and infrastructure projects.
Market Impact and Utility
The LTM 1130-5.1 has become a staple in the heavy lifting industry due to its high capacity, long reach, and the innovative VarioBase system. Its ability to navigate and operate in challenging environments makes it a valuable asset for a wide array of projects worldwide. The crane’s adoption across nearly 70 countries underscores its effectiveness and reliability in diverse operational contexts.
Overall, the Liebherr LTM 1130-5.1 combines advanced engineering with practical innovations like the VarioBase system, setting new standards for performance and adaptability in the mobile crane industry.
Milestones
- Liebherr delivered 10,000th LTM 1130-5.1 to Alfred Trepka in July 2016: The LTM 1130-5.1 will be Trepja’s largest crane and they have ordered the crane with VarioBase variable support base for greater flexibility and safety, particularly in constricted site conditions.
- Southern Crane & Access bought UK’s first LTM1130-5.1 with new VarioBase technology in Feb 2014: As mentioned by Southern Cranes & Access managing director Clive Sadler, the use of the Variable Supporting Base leads to improved levels of safety during lifting operations; the crane operator will know exactly how much weight can be lifted in any given circumstance and offers us a greater flexibility of offer their customers the ability to plan lifts in previously difficult or dangerous environments.
