LTM1230-5:1

250te Mobile Crane

The Largest of MCH Fleet, Liebherrs crane experts made the multi-award-winning VarioBase® support technology the focal point of the structural steel design for this crane.

This means that the LTM 1230-5.1 is the first to have an asymmetrical support base. VarioBase® means that it is now possible to generate particularly high lifting capacities, particularly at the rear working area, over the supports – calculated in real-time by the LICCON controller.

VarioBase® Plus is the combination of VarioBase and an asymmetrical support base. Furthermore, the LTM 1230-5.1 has an extremely long telescopic boom. And it also sets new standards in terms of lifting capacity. With lattice extensions, the maximum hook height has been increased by around 10 percent compared to its predecessor.

The 5-axle mobile crane is therefore ideal for working with the boom fully raised and at large hook heights, for example for erecting tower cranes or maintenance work for wind turbines

LTM1230 Benefits

75.0mtr Main boom
20.0mtr dual stage luffing fly
VarioBallast® completes the enormous increase in lifting capacity and flexibility – the radius of the 72-tonne ballast can be adjusted from 4.8 metres to 5.7 metres. Want a comparison? With the same ballast height compared to the predecessor model, the LTM 1200-5.1, the new 5-axle crane can on average hoist over 20 % more. That’s a significant increase!
