Discover the World's Largest Mobile Crane: The Liebherr LTM 1750 with 800 Ton Capacity | Documentary

Discover the World's Largest Mobile Crane: The Liebherr LTM 1750 with 800 Ton Capacity | WELT Documentary - The Liebherr family company, based in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, is the global market leader in the mobile and crawler cranes sector, with around 30,000 of the company's mobile cranes currently in service worldwide. Among these is the LTM 1750, the largest mobile crane in the world that can drive on the road with its enormous telescopic boom mounted. It has a maximum load capacity of 800 tons with a 52-meter telescopic boom and a maximum lift height of 152 meters. The crane consists of four elements: the carrier, the superstructure, the engine, and the telescopic boom. The metal fabrication shop is where the frame sections for the mobile telescopic crane are made, consisting of over 1000 individual parts that all have to be joined together exactly according to the fabrication plan. The LTM 1750 costs approximately €4 million and is equipped with hydraulic axle suspension. The crane can maneuver on site with a load on the hook and can lift up to 1.8 tonnes at the maximum operating radius of 160 meters.

i was a mechanic on heavy equipment for 37 years but had never ben around cranes.I started watching these Liebherr videos during the first covid lockup. i just keep watching crane videos

Frick'n awesome documentary!!! I would love to see a multi-hour doc of not just the assembly, but the 'manufacture' of all the massive custom parts and then a extended version of the assembly process followed by a on site field rigging and actual use on a live job site! 🤪👍

I would thank the documentary personnel and the Liebherr company for allowing us to view such engineering marvel being manufactured and assembled. If it was for me a civil engineer I would have liked it to be far more detailed [we cannot get enough]. Hope to see such good documentaries further. I would have asked liebherr to allow us to visit some time. Eehab Khalil

Said to be the largest mobile (over the road) crane in the Middle East at the time, our contractor used this Liebherr to fly the completed tank roof into position on our project in Saudi. What an operation. What a piece of equipment. Thank you for posting this documentary.

The machine is incredible by it self, no question about it. The surprising thing is the efficiency of the mechanics. A handful of mechanics on the floor each with a specific task. This is the right way to do business!

I'm a crane operator and also a watchmaker in Brazil. I have been working as a crane operator for 22 years and as a watchmaker for 8 years. I love my two professions. When talking about weight, there are two extremes. I have worked with cranes weighing up to 600 tons. Here in Brazil, nowadays, this profession pays poorly. But it is a profession that is enchanting when you have love for it.

That Crane is a Beast and the Factory is impressive 😎👌

[sixfootfourmike]

The torque required to secure some of these components is insane. This crane is a certified beast.

They are so dam good at engineering they make their own engine that is amazing

[oldfreddyfrenchfry]

The music is way too dramatic. “Oh my gosh, this is epic, they’re checking hydraulic pressure!” 🤦‍♂️

[JKSB]

Let's be honest you don't need this crane but you want one just like me...

[swagzoneus]

It's amazing to see how these machines are able to work with such precision and accuracy. They are truly operating at another level.

Greed is what is killing Germany's manufacturing prowess. Large number of German companies have moved to Asia, China in particular.

Mantap..., dan sangat luarbiasa pembuatan mobile crane nya..👍🇮🇩🇮🇩

[carmatic]

the music of this video reminds me of a video game ... imagine that you are playing a 'Liebherr Factory Sim' and the game developers have implemented dynamic music, where the more correct actions you do, the more intense the music gets
and this video is basically like a speedrun of that game

[jeffro]

I would like to watch these engineering videos except for the intrusive unnecessary music.

[realemonful]

Can you imagine having to diagnose and repair one of these things?

11:25 I did not expect to hear Steve Taylor here but that is a very welcome surprise. He has a great voice to listen to and I am glad to hear more of him!

Awesome Vid of manufacturing the LIEBHERR LTM 1750-9.1!!! However, I should like to point out that the LTM 1750-9.1 is not the World's Largest Mobile Crane: 4 other Mobile Cranes are larger & stronger, as follows: 1) LIEBHERR LTM 11200-9.1 2) SANY SAC24000T 3) ZOOMLION ZAT24000H 4) XCMG XCA2600 10-Axle All-Terrain Crane
