Rough-terrain cranes continue to evolve with smarter controls, enhanced operator assistance, and safer performance for demanding environments. The latest models are built for increased productivity across construction, infrastructure, energy, mining, and industrial maintenance applications where mobility, visibility, and efficient setup are essential. Advances such as proportional full-power booms, variable outrigger positioning, ergonomic tilting cabs, and integrated telematics are improving lift planning and everyday operations. With features like transport-ready design and electric power options, this new generation of rough-terrain cranes supports more precise, connected, and reliable lifting on today's constrained and complex job sites.

Liebherr LRT 1130-2.1

The Liebherr LRT 1130-2.1 features a 60-metre, seven-section TELEMATIK telescopic boom designed to support a wide range of lifting requirements. The boom can be extended and secured automatically through Liebherr's high-speed telescoping system, enabling operators to configure the crane efficiently on site.

Several boom extension options are available to increase reach and flexibility. A 10.8-metre single folding jib or a 10.8- to 19-metre double folding jib can be installed at 0, 20, or 40 degrees, with an optional hydraulic adjustment range from 0 to 40 degrees. When paired with an additional 7-metre lattice section, the crane can achieve hook heights up to 85 metres. The folding jib is stowed on the right side of the boom, while a 2.9-metre assembly jib can be mounted on the left. A side-folding rooster sheave with two-line capability further expands the crane's lifting configurations for different operational scenarios.

For transport, the LRT 1130-2.1 has a width of 3.4 metres, a height of 3.85 metres, and a chassis length of 9.4 metres. It can be moved at 48 tonnes with its folding jib and hook block, or reduced to 44.8 tonnes when needed. The counterweight system uses self-assembly ballasting rams.

Safety is built into both set-up and operation. An outrigger monitoring system automatically records whether the crane is supported on tires or outriggers, with ballast installation and optional jib configuration also tracked in the control system. VarioBase enables independent outrigger extension, with real-time capacity calculations based on the crane's exact stance.

Operator-focused features support visibility and controlled movement, including a tilting cab and safe-access points with ladders, grab handles, and an extending platform. Storage for lifting accessories and support materials helps keep the work area organized.

Powered by a 6-cylinder Cummins engine that can be used with HVO, the crane combines high tractive effort with excellent off-road manoeuvrability. A 6-speed powershift Dana transmission, large 29.5 R 25 tires, and all-wheel or crab steering modes ensure confident performance on uneven terrain and in restricted spaces.
