Liebherr Hands Over Trio of Cranes to Richter, JenKran, and GuR Saalfeld
Long-standing partners strengthen contractor network with new LTR 1100, LTM 1160-5.2, and LTM 1090-4.2 cranes from Liebherr. www.liebherr.comCrane handover in Ehingen (from left to right): Walter Weise (JenKran GmbH), Sven Bahms (Liebherr-Werk Ehingen GmbH), Matthias Richter, Anton Pätzold (both Richter Kran und Schwerlast GmbH), Jan Freitag (GuR Saalfeld GmbH). Three crane service providers from Saxony and Thuringia are relying on new technology from Liebherr: Richter Kran und Schwerlast GmbH from Leipzig, JenKran GmbH from Jena and GuR Saalfeld GmbH have each taken delivery of a new crane. The equipment – an LTR 1100, an LTM 1160-5.2 and an LTM 1090-4.2 – was handed over jointly at the Liebherr plant in Ehingen. The companies have been working together in a contractor network for many years. The focus here is on a partnership approach. Matthias Richter from Richter Kran und Schwerlast explains: ‘Everyone contributes their expertise – together instead of against each other.’ Walter Weise from JenKran, a company in the Schwerlast Weise Group, also sees clear advantages in the cooperation: “You can rely on dependable partners. Whoever is closer to the construction site takes care of planning and deployment. This saves resources and is sustainable. If necessary, we even support each other with personnel.” The network offers additional opportunities for smaller companies. Jan Freitag from GuR Saalfeld says: ‘By working together, we can offer our customers a broader portfolio and respond flexibly to requirements.’ Wide range of applications for new cranes The new LTR 1100 telescopic crawler crane from Richter Kran und Schwerlast GmbH will be used in future as a set-up crane for large cranes, as an auxiliary crane for the pre-assembly of wind turbines and for off-road work on infrastructure construction sites. JenKran is replacing an older Grove 130-tonne crane with the LTM 1160-5.2. The new addition takes on tasks such as the assembly of tower cranes and can be used as a flexible taxi crane. GuR Saalfeld has added the LTM 1090-4.2 to its fleet. The compact 90-tonne crane replaces a 70-tonne crane and closes the performance gap to the 160-tonne crane. Despite its compact dimensions, it offers a higher lifting capacity and a 60-metre telescopic boom – ideal for operations in rural areas. Long-standing customer relationships All three companies have relied on Liebherr mobile and crawler cranes for many years. The close co-operation is based on mutual trust, high product quality and reliable service that sets standards in the industry. The partners also value the manufacturer’s ability to react quickly when it comes to spare parts supply and technical support. The joint crane handover in Ehingen is an expression of this established relationship and a clear commitment to technology ‘Made in Germany’. www.liebherr.com Powered by Induportals Media Publishing
