Liebherr LTC 1055-3.1

Liebherr LTC 1055-3.1
The three-axle, LTC (Liebherr Telescopic Compact) 1055-3.1 crane has been designed specifically for tight working conditions which require an extremely compact machine with excellent maneuverability. While Liebherr does not label it as a rough-terrain crane, the LTC 1055-3.1 has features that make it suitable for rough conditions.

Overall length is just 27.5 feet (8.38 m), and the width is 8.3 feet (2.54 m). The two rear axles provide active rear-axle steering that gives the LTC 1055-3.1 a tight turning radius over the carrier of 6.15 m, and 6.45 m over the telescopic boom. Five programmed steering modes are available: on-road steering, all-wheel steering, crab steering, steering without swerving out, and independent rear-axle steering. Total weight of the LTC 1055-3.1 is 39.7 tons (36 mt), with equal axle-load distribution of 13.3 tons (12 mt) achieved through the use of hydropneumatic suspension. It features hydrostatic drive which provides precise maneuvering, shunting mode and a 7-section, 36-m compact boom.
