Liebherr LTM 1160

Crane Carrier Specifications

• Frame and Outriggers: The LTM 1160 features a Liebherr-designed box type, torsion-resistant frame made from high-tensile structural steel, ensuring stability and durability. It includes 4 sliding beams with hydraulic extension cylinders and hydraulic support pad jacks for secure and level operation in diverse conditions.
• Engine and Transmission: Powered by a Daimler-Benz engine, this crane delivers 390 kW (530 HP) at 1800 min⁻¹, with a robust torque of 3079 Nm at 1400 min⁻¹. The transmission system is an Allison type CLBT 754 automatic with torque converter and hydrodynamic retarder, providing smooth and effective handling across challenging terrains.
• Axles and Suspension: All six axles are sprung, with axles 1 to 3 and 6 steered, enhancing maneuverability. The crane’s suspension is a hydro-pneumatic system with automatic leveling, offering consistent performance and comfort during transit and operations.

Crane Superstructure Capabilities

• Crane Engine and Drive: Equipped with a water-cooled Daimler-Benz engine, the superstructure operates efficiently, supporting the crane’s heavy lifting demands with ease. The diesel-hydraulic drive system includes axial piston swivelling pumps for precise output control, facilitating refined movement and placement of loads.
• Telescopic Boom and Jib: The main telescopic boom extends up to 45 meters, with independent extendable sections, maximizing reach and versatility. Additional equipment includes a folding jib ranging from 18 to 20 meters and various lattice jibs, further extending the crane’s operational capacity.
• Safety Systems: The crane features modern safety devices, including LICCON safe load indicators and hose rupture safety valves, ensuring operations are conducted safely under various load conditions.

Additional Equipment

• Jib Options: The crane offers several jib configurations, including a folding jib for straight-line boom extensions and lattice jibs for varied lifting operations. The configuration options allow the crane to adapt to specific job requirements effectively.
• Load Moment Limiter and Tyre Options: It is equipped with a load moment limiter to prevent overloading and ensure safe lifting operations. The crane also runs on 12 large-sized tyres, providing better stability and load distribution.

Overall, the Liebherr LTM 1160 combines advanced lifting technologies with robust construction and flexible operational capabilities, making it ideal for large-scale construction projects, infrastructure development, and other industrial applications requiring substantial lifting power and reach.
