Discover the World's Largest Mobile Crane: The Liebherr LTM 1750 with 800 Ton Capacity | Documentary

Discover the World's Largest Mobile Crane: The Liebherr LTM 1750 with 800 Ton Capacity | WELT Documentary - The Liebherr family company, based in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, is the global market leader in the mobile and crawler cranes sector, with around 30,000 of the company's mobile cranes currently in service worldwide. Among these is the LTM 1750, the largest mobile crane in the world that can drive on the road with its enormous telescopic boom mounted. It has a maximum load capacity of 800 tons with a 52-meter telescopic boom and a maximum lift height of 152 meters. The crane consists of four elements: the carrier, the superstructure, the engine, and the telescopic boom. The metal fabrication shop is where the frame sections for the mobile telescopic crane are made, consisting of over 1000 individual parts that all have to be joined together exactly according to the fabrication plan. The LTM 1750 costs approximately €4 million and is equipped with hydraulic axle suspension. The crane can maneuver on site with a load on the hook and can lift up to 1.8 tonnes at the maximum operating radius of 160 meters.

i was a mechanic on heavy equipment for 37 years but had never ben around cranes.I started watching these Liebherr videos during the first covid lockup. i just keep watching crane videos

[@kia2700g-0vsfnk]

Hi! I'm completely foreign to mechanical engineering, but recently just got very interested in pavers and cranes. I'm wondering if by any chance you have some interesting crane videos you'd want to share?

The machine is incredible by it self, no question about it. The surprising thing is the efficiency of the mechanics. A handful of mechanics on the floor each with a specific task. This is the right way to do business!

Said to be the largest mobile (over the road) crane in the Middle East at the time, our contractor used this Liebherr to fly the completed tank roof into position on our project in Saudi. What an operation. What a piece of equipment. Thank you for posting this documentary.

[@como_consertar_relogio]

I'm a crane operator and also a watchmaker in Brazil. I have been working as a crane operator for 22 years and as a watchmaker for 8 years. I love my two professions. When talking about weight, there are two extremes. I have worked with cranes weighing up to 600 tons. Here in Brazil, nowadays, this profession pays poorly. But it is a profession that is enchanting when you have love for it.

[@FrankHeuvelman]

Wow, can there be any more difference between lifting 10 tonnes and lifting a gear weighing a few milligrams?

[@rp1645]

Thank you for what you do as an operator Do you ever get on a Job, then the supervisor for building company wants you to set outrigger in to soft a location Then have you LIFT more than the crane allowed 😊 just asking for feedback on how you deal with an oversized lift.

[@madchad2]

Frick'n awesome documentary!!! I would love to see a multi-hour doc of not just the assembly, but the 'manufacture' of all the massive custom parts and then a extended version of the assembly process followed by a on site field rigging and actual use on a live job site! 🤪👍

I saw a vid (on this channel?) using this crane putting in a couple sections of an overpass on a highway. Came in two parts. First part sets up and builds the crane from the second part. Does the job asap and reverse procedure - disassemble. On to next job.

[@eehabkhalil5175]

I would thank the documentary personnel and the Liebherr company for allowing us to view such engineering marvel being manufactured and assembled. If it was for me a civil engineer I would have liked it to be far more detailed [we cannot get enough]. Hope to see such good documentaries further. I would have asked liebherr to allow us to visit some time. Eehab Khalil

It’s amazing to see the Liebherr LTM 1750 handle an 800-ton load! I’m really curious about how it’s operated and controlled-any small error could have huge consequences, so the technicians must be extremely skilled

im surprised at the lack of personal protective equipment during the testing phases... you'd think that with the torques, forces, pressures, weights etc involved, they would want to be more safe than sorry like what if one of the many hydraulic lines sprung a leak during a test?

the music of this video reminds me of a video game ... imagine that you are playing a 'Liebherr Factory Sim' and the game developers have implemented dynamic music, where the more correct actions you do, the more intense the music gets and this video is basically like a speedrun of that game

Probably the most iconic tower cranes would have to be what was originally the Australian Favco crane . These were used on the New York Twin Towers in the 60’s . I still see a lot of Favco’s on building projects in Melbourne Australia, a city with a lot of high rise in its CBD .

[@cyclotronbxl]

Great, but Favco didn’t invent the tower crane, and this video is talking about mobile crane, which Favco doesn’t make. It seems that it isn’t so iconic, while the highest isn’t made by Favco, the stronger one isn’t made by Favco, the higher capacity isn’t made by Favco. Favco is just a company who made simple conception crane that made eficienty cost of fabrication. If you’re Australian, it’s normal to be proud of a company who sells worldwide, but that doesn’t mean that this company is worldwide iconic. It will depend on which domain and the region/continent.

[@Ilaab1995]

German, that is schwaebisches, engineering at its finest. No wonder one can see Liebherr cranes on every continent. I wonder how this company is handling the energy challenges from the government's sanctions on Russian energy. It requires a lot of energy and raw materials (some of which may also be sanctioned) to manufacture one of these machines.

[@jamesreidford6530]

Great documentary, Lego city came out with something remarkably similar in set 60409, I’ve added my own luffing jib to it & just like the real thing it’s a marvel to look at especially paired with the Lego Vestas turbine.

I've been pondering adding the luffing jib to mine as well. It's quite the fun little set, unlike their horrific LR13000 they released.

@@kungabagana2748You know greed? When they sacrifice quality and providing economic benefit to their own community for a slightly higher profit margin. This has happened to almost all major manufacturing in the USA but it’s not necessarily due to company greed. The US Gov sells out US Companies manufacturing to other countries to anyone that will kickback to their secret bank accounts and fake companies they setup to launder money.
