To meet the demands of projects requiring exceptional height and precision, Cadman Cranes has added the Liebherr LTM 1230-5.1 to its fleet.
“This Liebherr crane allows us to tackle complex projects requiring extended hook heights and pinpoint precision,” says Matt Waddingham, Cadman’s managing director. “It’s an essential addition to our fleet, combining cutting-edge lifting capacity with the sustainability features our clients expect.”
With a 75m telescopic boom and lattice extensions enabling a maximum hoist height of 111m and a radius of up to 86m, the 230-tonne crane significantly enhances the company’s ability to tackle complex lifting challenges. The LTM 1230-5.1’s advanced boom technology delivers efficiency and adaptability, performing seamlessly in applications demanding high reach and challenging configurations.
In addition to its operational advantages, the crane is fitted with Liebherr’s ECOmode and ECOdrive technologies that dovetail with Cadman’s aim to be sustainable. ECOmode minimises fuel consumption and noise emissions by calculating the perfect engine speed when operating the crane superstructure, while ECOdrive minimises fuel consumption when the crane is on the road. It will also run on HVO fuel rather than diesel as part of Cadman’s sustainability policy.
