Steil Kranarbeiten invests in Liebherr mobile cranes

Heavy lift and haulage company Steil Kranarbeiten, based in Trier, Germany, has added two new Liebherr telescopic mobile cranes to its fleet.

They are LTM 1500-8.1 and a LTM 1060-3.1. Both cranes will be used for working in the wind power sector, repowering and general industry lifting tasks. The 3-axle LTM 1060-3.1 will be used for regional hoisting work, the company said.

Birgit Steil, Steil Kranarbeiten managing director, said, “The LTM 1500-8.1 provides massive versatility and its 84 metre telescopic boom makes it suitable for special jobs which conventional cranes in the same load capacity class simply cannot handle. The Liebherr crane convinced us with its sophisticated technology.

“We buy from Liebherr because their technology is reliable and their cranes hold their value. In addition we can rely on good after-sales service from Liebherr.”

The two models join 80 cranes in Steil Kranarbeiten’s fleet.
