Liebherr boosts mobile crane range

Liebherr has added the 50-tonne capacity LTC 1050-3.1 to its compact mobile crane line-up. Using a six-section 36m telescopic boom, the crane is offered with a 7.5m-13m double folding fly jib. With a gross weight of 36 tonnes, the LTC 1050-3.1 is designed to be operated as a self-contained crane, with axle weights of 12 tonnes including full 6.5 tonne counterweight. The machine is powered by a Stage IV/Tier 4 Final six-cylinder diesel engine producing 260kW and 1,400Nm of torque. This drives through a six-speed ZF automatic transmission to the three drive axles.

    Advances in transmission technology will help to optimise machine performance – writes Mike Woof. As construction machines have become more sophisticated, so have the transmission systems used in items of equipment. Advances in electronics and software in particular have allowed the development of integrated transmissions. These operate more efficiently and help optimise power delivery from an engine, boosting torque response and cutting fuel consumption and emissions at the same time. The smart electronics
