The new model follows the recent deliveries of a LTM 1100-5.2 and an LTM 1250-5.1 and will be used for different applications such as construction and naval port industries.

“We wanted to complete our fleet and eventually the LTM 1150-5.3 was the best choice. The crane convinced us with its versatility, its boom length and VarioBase system,” said says owner Sandro Mantovani.

“Despite its dimensions, the crane is compact, has great manoeuvrability, and economic efficiency. The crane has a 66 metre telescopic boom and when fully extended, it can lift more than nine tonnes. It can complete lots of jobs without requiring additional ballast transport vehicles.”

The Venice-headquartered crane rental company started its business in the 1950s. Its fleet comprises of cranes with lifting capacities up to 250 tonnes. It also has aerial platform and helicopter services for transport and lifting work.
