Liebherr LG 1550 Specifications

The Liebherr LG 1550 lattice boom truck, when equipped with the wind tip, has a stronger chart than the Manitowoc 16000 and offers simpler set-up. Requiring much less site preparation than a crawler, the LG 1550's truck carrier is ideal for preservation of the environment. The machine is capable of servicing turbines to 100m hub height without utilizing a derrick or luffing jib. With a luffing jib  the LG 1550 can service turbines up to 120m with a capacity of 176, 000 lbs. This configuration puts it into direct competition with the much larger Manitowoc 18000, without the greater mobilization costs.
