Liebherr recently unveiled a variety of updates and an expansion of its mobile crane lineup during Customer Day at the Liebherr USA Co. headquarters in Newport News, Virginia.
The company is rising to new heights with the LTM 1300-6-3, which features a 295-foot telescopic boom with variable axle load.
Liebherr also is launching a new standard crane design for its all-terrain series, starting with the rebranding of the popular LTM 1110-5.1. With multiple new features including the LICCON crane control system, the ZF TraXon DynamicPerform gearbox, an updated operator’s cab and an oil-cooled multi-disk clutch, the unit is now the LTM 1110-5.2.

With the unveiling of the LTM 1300-6.3, Liebherr says it has set a new world record with the mobile crane being able to carry the 295-foot boom with an axle load of just 13 tons.
The eight-section telescopic boom and outriggers on the LTM 1300-6.3 can be installed and removed quickly and easily to achieve axle loads of less than 13 tons. Tele-separation enables individual sections to be removed quickly to set up the crane for the road with a gross weight of less than 66 tons and axle loads of under 11 tons.
A new feature on the LM 1300-6.3 is an optional central lubrication system for the king pin bearing on the chassis. The system delivers grease to 24 lube points on the six-axle crane automatically.
