  • german power

    

  • what is the point with the dolly on the back to me it looks a waste of time and money

  • @MrHyper728 Because the State laws - (Maximum weight by axle)

    Search on youtube using 3 keywords > rear axle booster

  • @raunet the law is different over here in england

  • @MrHyper728 I know .. I owned a trucking company in France ....Thanks brother .

  • @raunet Nice crane. Here in America has same thing. Most them are over weight and if law say that need to be reduce the weight by axle so it will not stress on the street. If the sign are limit 10 tonnes then add the axle will need to reduce the stress on road.

    Not all road are strong to handle that massive weight!

  • @strassj Thank you brother . i live in the states since 8 years . I know very well .

  • @raunet You're welcome! I been watch lot crane here in my hometown, even I did watch the skycrane built park tower for 6 years!

    Lot crane are in the vary size.. it can be start by small or middle size to build large mobile or largest tower crane.

  • ...let me guess, rosie o'donnell is being moved ?

  • Братишка LOKOMO)))

  • @Vlad2208 LOKOMO был интереснее, а это просто породия...

  • @Vlad2208 Я пять лет трудился в "УМ-3" и успел поработать на многих интересных кранах. Начиная с А-393; 395; "малышах","короткобазовых" и закончил "полтинником" А-353. Теника "LOKOMO" надо сказать УНИКАЛЬНАЯ!

  • kijk ook eens bij maderokar of nettenkar en verbaas u door de werking ervan !!!

  • i would like to know more about maximum axle weights in the US. Here in Europe this type of crane (150 or 160 metric tons capacity) can travel without a dolly and just with the boom forward. I don't mean the criticis you. but it looks odd to me.

  • it looks stuppid with that dolly behind!!!

  • tylnie wózki stosuje się dla odciążenia osi głównych w krajach o rygorystycznych przepisach o nacisku na osie

  • Whatever happened to Bucyrus-Erie?

  • I'm curious to know what's the purpose of the dollie?

  • @rich075

    to distribute full weight / axle weight reduction

  • a be damn'ed!

    what at big Crane!

  • hilarious

  • epic!

  • ciekawy jak huj

  • Whaaaahaha, enough axles for terrain and than a boomdolly for on the road!!!

    Very funny, here in holland this is something you'll never see! Not even the twica as big ones!

  • Liebherr - Good german quality!

  • Excuse me. We build them in Sunderland U.K. as well. Thank you.

  • That doesnt change the fact,that Liebherr is a German firm.

  • Best cranes around. Talked to many operators that run Liebherrs and they say they are the "Cadillac" or "Mersedes" of cranes! Talked to guys operating Grove or even a Demag and they say they wish they had Liebherr!

  • @anewbeggining21 Liebherr is the cream of the crop as far as cranes. And they have Mercedes motors in them

  • i hate pay parking meter in all america land

  • how much for that crane??

  • yo mama

  • The 3rd axle accually is down most of the time. In Canada our road laws are more lax, but not quite like Europe. Larger cranes still use boom dolly's to help spread the weight. The boom dolly axles are spread out as well as the 3rd axle up because in California their has to be a certain weight over a certain distance as well. Its an all terrain crane the back 2 and the 2nd from the front are the drive axles. There are 4 steering modes. Front 3 only, back 2 only, all 5 or crab steering.

  • meh

  • There will also be outriggers to spead the weight and maintain stability during operations. Methinks the dolly would also stop the huge boom flipping the vehicle driving cab up in the air whilst driving along roads.

  • The third axle is only put down once they deploy the crane, to spead the weight out. The two front axles steer, the two rear drive. If the third was down on the highway, it would just scrub sideways whenever you turned, and not help drive. It's only for on-site, where the base will move little, if at all. It wouldn't even have to be a wheel, except they may need to move the base slightly. The dolly is to support the weight of the boom; so you don't have 13 tons hanging fifteen feet off the back.

  • What are you talking about? Nothing you have said makes sense.

  • It has 5 axles- OOoOO (o=lifted wheel) The rear OO are fixed + drive the the vehicle. The front 2 OO steer, pulling the front of the truck left or right, while it pivots on rear 2. Since fixed middle axle is between, it just slips sideways as the front moves left or right. Many dump trucks have a third axle lifted when empty- OOoO It's lowered to spread weight. If it didn't get in the way, they'd just design it OOOO. Any weight a crane lifts goes into 5 axles; it only needs 4 to hold own weight.

  • hahaha NOPE!

  • i guess teh dolly is due to axle weights, you cold turn the carriage 180 o and transport it forwrdly

  • Can anyone tell me why they use that dolly in tow?Why go to that trouble.Its got to add 10 grand to the cost no.

  • they use a dolly to dispurse the weight of the crane over the axles. therefor reducing ground pressure. also helps make the crane more manueverable during transport.

  • OH YEAH, try parking one... xD

  • i wonder if its heavy??

  • 160ton liebherr???

  • big...

  • yea i havent seen this before. unless he going in ro an area where slewing is restricted but then all his counter weight is off

  • I would like to know why they choose a 2+1 configuration for the boom's dolly? why can't they use a 3 axles or 4 axles configuration?

  • Just a guess, but I'm thinking it might have to do with spreading the load over a longer distance, to keep from loading any one point, such as on a bridge deck, too much.

    But I really don't know.

    (shrugging shoulders...)

  • you're right, you can see in the video that the boom is capable of swinging over the cab, and making it one solid unit, which is how they are usually driven. In states like Virginia there are laws regarding the number of tons per axle, so they have to add extras or spread the load out.

  • The problem here is Liebherr numbers thier cranes in metric tonnage. You're likely thinking LTM 1220 is 220tons, but that is metric tons. In North America a LTM1220 is rated at 265 tons (imperial). Since your likely using metric tonnage your probably looking at the LTM 1250 which is on 6 axles but here in North America the LTM 1250 is rated at 300 tons. A 220 metric ton (265-275 US ton) crane is the biggest you get on a 5 axle carrier. That should clear things up hopefully.

  • Why they don`t use the other possittion to take the crane in the road¿?.I don`t understand, that`s so long for nothing.

  • crane has to be transported that way because of axle load configurations as required by local and state/federal DOT

    you cannot put X weight on a bridge or stretch of road unles spread on X lenght..

  • O robię podpory do takich

  • OH MY that crane boom arm look like such an BIg hydraulic cylinder!

  • In Europe,home of Liebherr,that`s a LTM 1200,200 T crane,and i don`t understand why you don`t take it in the other possition to go for road,

  • In case that in this country exists a limitation of maximum axle loads to go on road, they use a trailer to reduce the load of each axle.

  • axle weight limits are different in the usa, even from state to state

  • that's ok with me .we both work cranes and plant for a living that how it is, would be good to talk to you about cranes in the US keepitbrief22 stay safe out there

  • I hear alot of crane operators saying that Liebherr's kick ass and are the " Cadillac's" of mobile cranes these days. Would you agree or dissagree and care to share a few things you like or dislike about them over say a Grove or Terex-Demag? Thanks a bunch...

  • Liebherr are not the Cadillac's of mobile cranes; they are the Mercedes' ! lol

  • lol Same idea...comparing a Grove, Terex-Demag and Tadano to a car brand what would they be? lol

  • in case you havent noticed terex bought grove and demag bought them both ;)

  • NOPE!!! Sorry bud your wrong. Terex bought Demag a few years ago. The cranes are the same but under the name Terex-Demag. Grove was bought by Manitowoc, Grove is still just Grove just part of the Manitowoc crane group along with National Crane boom trucks and Potain tower cranes, and of course Manitowoc!

  • yeah ever wondered why the drums and workings of a manitowoc are german? i did till i worked on one.

  • what a beautiful machine!!!

  • that "trailer thing" on the back is called a dolly its to take some of the weight off the crane so it will pass D.O.T. weight requirements. And, the boom of any crane does not sit on the cab, it sits in a cradle that is very close to the cab though, and yes, even 500 ton cranes have cradles! This rig is close to a 300 ton.

  • Whats the idea of the trailer thing at the back. I thought the arm rests on the cab.

  • its prob to heavy to sit on the cab

  • I've seen 500ton cranes rest the jib on the cab. I would think this crane is only about 200-300 ton.

  • you say that 500ton cranes rest on the cab but this 200-300ton crane cant? how logical is that -.-''

  • 275-300t. hard to tell. I've never seen a pup that looks like that

  • 100-160 area?

  • It's on New Hampshire , between 6th street & Wilshire blvd

  • @raunet look at 0:24 on the bottom side (Chinese letters)

  • hey patrice what ton lifting capicty is the crane

  • why is the boom over the back is it you law there am kieran mcgovern (mcgovern crane hire) nice vid + crane ty and hop u see my vids

  • Thanks for your message , my friends .

    my name is Patrice , french , in California since 2003 .

    I was in this business in Europe (international transport)

    The answer :

    because It's a very big crane (oversize load) , & because the californian law .

    For example , the concrete mixers have 1 more axle (rear booster or lift axle).

    Look some of my others videos .

  • @raunet Why crane middle axel have been lifted?

  • awesome video!!!

  • Thank you .
