The LTR 11200 capacity telescopic crawler is the strongest telescopic crane on the market and has the longest telescopic boom in the world. Due to its high lifting capacities and variable boom options, it is well suited to a wide range of jobs in the industrial, mining, infrastructure, wind and energy sectors.
The narrow-track crawler tracks enable the crane to crawl narrow roads found on wind farm and infrastructure sites. The excellent stability of the crawler track undercarriage ensures the crane can travel safely on site with its working equipment in position. During crane operation, the LTR 11200 is supported on star-pattern outriggers with an area of 13mx13m.
The LTR 11200 has strong lifting capacity charts, outperforming similar large capacity mobile cranes. The 100m telescopic boom, Y-suspension, lattice fly jibs, and much of the slewing platform are sourced from the LTM 11200-9.1 All-Terrain crane. Lift heights more than 190 metres are possible with available boom attachments, including the Y-suspension system, fixed and luffing lattice fly jibs.
