LATTICE BOOM CRAWLER CRANES Ӏ BAUMA 2025
remote troubleshooting. The crane’s counterweigh
system is a new design for Tadano. “Instead of a single stack we have used a double stack counterweight on the superstructure,” explains Rydbom. “This is the first time we’ve done this. The primary reason was safety. When you’re stacking up two hundred or three hundred tonnes of counterweight it’s going to get pretty high, around 15-16 pieces high. With the double stack design we’ve reduced this so that the maximum stack is seven pieces high.” "The CC 78.1250-1 represents a significant step forward in Tadano's crawler crane development," says Andreas Hofmann, Executive Vice President of Research & Development. "Customer feedback played a crucial role in its design, ensuring that this crane delivers not only superior lifting capacity but also transport-optimised components and efficient assembly sequences." The first company to buy a
Tadano CC 78.1250-1 is Maxim Crane Works, one of the largest crane rental companies in North America. The purchase was concluded with a signing ceremony at Bauma 2025. "At Maxim Crane Works, we are committed to providing our
Liebherr’s LR 1300.2 SX Unplugged
customers with cutting-edge lifting solutions,” says Paul McDonnell, CEO of Maxim. “The specifications of the CC 78.1250-1, including its exceptional lifting capacity and transport efficiency, made it an easy choice for our fleet. "We can’t wait to have this crane available to work on critical projects.”

COUNTERWEIGHT CULTURE In the middle lot of the outside area at Bauma 2025 was Liebherr, which had two lattice boom crawler cranes on its stand: the LR1400.1 SX with derrick system, and the LR1300.2 SX Unplugged. The 400-tonne capacity
LR1400.1 SX was presented for the first time with derrick equipment, and suspended counterweight, designed to increase crane’s lifting capacities for particularly heavy lifting operations and long boom and luffing jib configurations. Liebherr’s aim in doing this is to expand the range of applications available for the LR 1400.1 SX. With the derrick system the crane has a maximum boom length of 220m and a maximum pulley height of 217.2m. The suspended counterweight
consists of a main and an additional counterweight and can be adjusted using an infinitely variable hydraulic extension device. With Liebherr’s VarioTray, the additional counterweight can be increased or reduced with counterweight slabs weighing
