    Unveiled as a prototype at SAIE, Italy in October 2010, the compact 340AJ boom lift can cope with grades and break-over angles up to 45° allowing it to drive on slopes and up ramps. Built to a working height of 12.35metres and with a horizontal outreach of 6.07metres, the 340AJ is said by JLG to meet demands for a broad range of applications. The jib extends to 1.2metres with near vertical operation. When ground conditions get tough, proper off-road performance is ensured by the standard oscillating axle an

    January 6, 2017
    Liebherr has developed a hybrid drive system for its HS8300HD heavy duty cycle crawler crane. The 350 tonne machine generates electrical power from its hydraulic free-fall winches, which offer up to 50 tonnes of line pull. Under this Pactronic system surplus energy is stored in a hydraulic accumulator and regenerated to assist the engine, reducing fuel consumption. This reuse of energy also cuts emissions from the machine.
