Mobile Crane Expands Lifting Capabilities in Turkey

Doğu Kurtarma Vinç adds Liebherr LTM 1300-6.4 to its fleet, increasing flexibility for high-rise, infrastructure, and industrial lifting operations.  www.liebherr.com Handover of the crane to Doğu Kurtarma Vinç in Ehingen (from left to right): Michael Heckenberger (Liebherr), Mehmet Önal, Oğuzhan Akkoc (Liebherr), Eyüp Önal. Doğu Kurtarma Vinç has expanded its fleet with a Liebherr LTM 1300-6.4 mobile crane, strengthening its lifting capabilities in the 220–500 tonne range and enabling more versatile project execution. Context: Growing demand for high-capacity lifting Construction, energy, and infrastructure projects increasingly require cranes capable of handling high loads at significant heights. Companies operating in urban environments must also balance lifting performance with compact design and fast deployment. Fleet diversification is essential to meet varying project requirements efficiently. Equipment upgrade: Bridging capacity gaps The addition of the 300-tonne LTM 1300-6.4 fills the gap between existing 220- and 500-tonne cranes in the company’s fleet. This enables more precise matching of crane capacity to project requirements, improving operational efficiency. The crane is designed for applications such as tower crane installation, antenna assembly, wind turbine maintenance, and heavy industrial lifting. Key feature: 90-metre telescopic boom A defining feature of the LTM 1300-6.4 is its 90-metre telescopic boom, which allows operation at high lifting heights and steep angles. This capability is particularly important for high-rise construction and maintenance tasks. The crane also incorporates the LICCON3 control system, supporting safe and precise operation. Operational benefits: Flexibility and efficiency The compact design and six-axle configuration support manoeuvrability in urban environments such as Istanbul. Efficient rigging and quick setup times help reduce project duration and improve site productivity. Additional safety features, including a camera system at the jib tip, enhance visibility and operational safety during lifting tasks. Fleet strategy: Standardisation and reliability Doğu Kurtarma Vinç operates a fleet of 20 cranes, including multiple telescopic mobile cranes from Liebherr. The company continues to prioritise equipment quality, durability, and safety in its investment decisions. This latest addition supports the company’s strategy of modernising its fleet to meet evolving customer requirements across sectors such as construction, shipbuilding, and energy. Conclusion: Strengthening lifting capabilities By adding the LTM 1300-6.4, Doğu Kurtarma Vinç enhances its ability to handle complex lifting projects with greater flexibility and efficiency. The investment reflects ongoing demand for high-performance mobile cranes in urban and industrial environments.
