The LTM 1150-5.4 mobile crane from Liebherr, formerly known as the LTM 1150-5.3, is equipped with the new Liccon3 control system as well as new driver assistance systems to increase driving safety on the road. This 150-t crane has a telescopic boom with a maximum length of 66 m.
The third generation of the Liccon control system (Liebherr computed control) – Liccon3 – features a completely new software and programming language, faster data bus, significantly more memory and higher computing power. Proven hardware components, like the mobile operating and BTT display unit, have also been adopted.
The touchscreen function on the large display in the superstructure cab means that it is now even easier and more comfortable to control. The way in which the information is shown has also been revised and simplified. In addition, Liccon3 cranes are prepared for telemetry and fleet management as standard. In the future, crane contractors will be able to view and evaluate all the relevant data using the MyLiebherr customer portal.
The new driver’s cabin features a modern design and various enhancements. These include the new multifunction steering wheel, side roller blind on the driver’s door, improved instruments and modules as well as new displays. Additional convenience is offered by options such as a central locking system with remote key and the ‘Coming and Leaving Home’ function.
A new, automatic heating and air-conditioning system in both the driver’s cab and the crane operator’s cab ensures a high level of comfort. A sun sensor detects strong sunshine and automatically adjusts the heating settings. The lighting packages for the crane cab, the superstructure, the rear of the vehicle, the front headlights, the telescopic boom and the lattice fly jib have been optimised and can be operated with LEDs.
With the telescopic boom extended to its maximum length, the LTM 1150-5.4 still lifts 9.1 t, making it suitable for erecting tower cranes and radio masts. On the construction site, this efficient five-axle mobile crane can be immediately ready for use, since it already carries 9 t of ballast with a total weight of 60 t. So, it can carry out many jobs without requiring additional vehicles for the transport of ballast.
The LTM 1150-5.4 has other technical features that boost efficiency, comfort and safety. Road safety benefits from new intelligent assistance systems: the Blind Spot Information System (BSIS) and the Moving Off Information System (MOIS) support the driver and increase protection for road users such as pedestrians and cyclists.
In addition, the LTM 1150-5.4 will be prepared for the use of RemoteDrive as standard – a radio remote control with which the crane can be moved from the outside, providing a huge advantage for confined jobsites. To improve comfort and reliability, there are new options that have already been tried and tested on other models. These comprise a central lubrication system for the chassis and a digital tyre pressure indicator, resulting in excellent maintenance and availability of the crane.
