Fourth Liebherr crawler crane in a year – Al Faris takes delivery of LR 1500

LR 1500 - compact, powerful and simple

In the development of the LR 1500, Liebherr pursued the concept of 'powerful - compact - smart'. It delivers the lifting capacities of the 500 tonne crawler crane class throughout its operating range whilst having the dimensions and component weights, which have previously been standard in the 400 tonne class. It can be transported economically all over the world due to the low transport weights of its individual components. The overall concept of the LR 1500 is designed for simplicity in every respect.

'The crane delivers very good lifting capacities whilst having compact, transport-friendly dimensions', confirms Pinto. The latest crawler crane technology featured on the LR 1500 and the company's high level of satisfaction with its other LR crawler cranes in the fleet were additional major criteria behind the decision. Al Faris regards its new crane as an all-rounder, which it will use flexibly in industry, infrastructure, the energy sector and for jobs in ports.
