Liebherr’s LTM 1300-6.2 all-terrain crane exhibited at Conexpo 2014

The LTM 1300-6.2 all-terrain crane with single-engine drive is the successor to the proven LTM 1250-6.1. Its telescopic boom has been extended by six metres to 78m, and the model’s load capacity has also been increased. Liebherr claims its LTM 1300-6.2 crane is the most powerful mobile crane in the 300tonne class available on the market.

Liebherr’s LTM 1300-6.2 all-terrain crane
The LTM 1300-6.2 all-terrain crane with single-engine drive is the successor to the proven LTM 1250-6.1. Its telescopic boom has been extended by six metres to 78m, and the model’s load capacity has also been increased. 718 Liebherr claims its LTM 1300-6.2 crane is the most powerful mobile crane in the 300tonne class available on the market.

While the LTM 1300-6.2 is designed as a simple folding jib crane, it is also said by the German firm to be the smallest luffing jib crane on the market. This provides crane operators a low cost entry point into the luffing jib crane class.

A new concept for the superstructure drive unit has been used on the new LTM 1300-6.2. Instead of the twin-engine concept normally used on cranes in the 300tonne class, the LTM 1300-6.2 is powered by a single engine with a mechanical shaft. A mechanical shaft is said by Liebherr to ensure particularly high efficiency and, as a result, guarantees low fuel consumption for this new concept.

Other models from Liebherr’s crane line-up on show at Conexpo 2014 are the new LR 11000 crawler crane, the 380 EC-B flat-top crane, and the 542 HC-L luffing job crane.

    Boasting the world’s largest crawler crane – the Sany 3600 –in its line-up at bauma China 2012, Sany is looking to make a big impression at the Shanghai-based event. The Chinese firm’s giant is claimed to have a lifting capacity of 3600tonnes and is said to benefit from the use of sophisticated design methods such as limit state design, digital prototyping and top-down design. Upon its launch last year, industrial experts were said by Sany to have remarked that the 3600 crawler crane had been born from the

    Ammann’s APH 6530 ACEecon fully hydraulic vibratory plate is making its Conexpo debut at the 2014 show. ACEecon is described by the Swiss firm as a simple and robust compaction display system that indicates the compaction progress together with the maximum compaction level achievable with the machine, via an easily readable LED scale. The operator is integrated in the process and can intervene accordingly, therefore avoiding overcompaction and unnecessary passes. Fitted with a Hatz Diesel 1D81 engine, the

    Deutz used bauma to show two hybrid projects it is currently working on, including a hybrid drive for excavators and an innovative start/stop system for compact wheeled loaders. The hybrid drive is based on using a 160kW Deutz TCD 6.1 L6 engine with an integrated motor-generator. The engine is linked to an on-board electrical power network that uses super capacitors, a power inverter and an electric slew motor, allowing components to harvest, store and use electrical energy, specifically for slewing functio
