The German Liebherr group was founded in 1949 by Hans Liberger in Kisch Dov, a small town in southern Germany (Kirchdorf). The company is located in Ehingen, Germany, and is able to provide 350-1200 tons of all terrain cranes for users. Liebherr's truck cranes include the LG series of truss arms, and the LTM series of box telescopic arms. At the Munich BMW Expo 2007, Liebherr launched the world's largest LTM11200-9.1 all terrain crane. The machine adopts 9 axle chassis, seven telescopic arms as long as 100 meters, by using variable arm can extend to 126 meters, lifting height up to 170 meters. It can be used to install large wind turbines. LTM 11200 weighs 108 tons while driving, carrying all outrigger and the entire turntable, and the boom is transported by another vehicle.
Fairbairn steam crane (Fairbairn steam crane) is one of the oldest existing cranes and was built in August 1878. The machine is located in Bristol, England, weighing 120 tons. The banana type boom is 12 meters high, with a turning radius of 11 meters, which can lift 35 tons of heavy goods. After the restoration in 1988, it became part of the Bristol Industrial Museum.
Steam steam cranes used 100 years ago are removing obstacles on the railway.
The earliest steam crane in British Coles company is on display at the Beamish Museum. It was made in 1910 with a load capacity of 5 tons.
In 1918, the British COLES company used the Tilling-Stevens chassis to make the first electric mobile crane in Britain. It is also one of the earliest car cranes in the world.
During World War II, COLES bombed hundreds of military cranes for the British and allied forces under the bombing of Nazi aircraft and missiles.
In 1973, COLES launched LH1000 truck crane using box telescopic boom. Since then, COLES has been incapable of being declared bankrupt in 1980, and was annexed by Grof (GROVE) in 1984.
In 2002, grove was annexed by the group of GROVE, the 450 GMK7550 class all terrain crane launched in the same year.
In 1985, Gotha Wald made AMK1000-103 for Riga Mainz, the only one in the world, the 10 axis chassis, the maximum weight of 1000 tons, and the working radius of 4 meters at full load. The world record of the world's largest tonnage telescopic boom truck crane has been recorded for 22 years before Liebherr, Germany, launched the LTM11200-9.1 type 1200 ton full road crane in 2007. The car was resold several times and fell into the hands of the Taiwanese. The third hand is Taiwan dragon and tiger lifting company. The fourth hand is the right of Taiwan.
The AK 912GT truss arm crane, made in 1985 by Gottald, Germany, was the world's largest wheel crane with 1200 tons of lifting capacity after being equipped with a super lift and a specific arm length, which produced only 3 units. AK912 adopts 10 axle chassis, divided into the first 6, the 4, the first 7, the 3 two. Because the body is too large, exceeding the limit of German road transport, the use cost is very high. After GOTTWALD was annexed by Demag in Germany in 1988, the AK912 GT truss truck crane became a masterpiece of the generation.
In 2007, the German Liebherr group launched the LTM 11200-9.1 1200 ton all terrain crane, becoming the world's largest all terrain crane. The machine adopts 9 axle chassis, seven telescopic arms as long as 100 meters, by using variable arm can extend to 126 meters, lifting height up to 170 meters. It can be used to install large wind turbines.
