Historic backdrop – Wilden hoists work platform out of the river using Liebherr LTM 1090-4.2 mobile crane
September 23, 2020
Set up with 22.5 tonnes of ballast, the Liebherr LTM 1090-4.2 mobile crane hoisted the 12.8 tonne work platform out of the water with a radius of 15 metres and placed it on a low loader. “These jobs are now fairly routine to us as we do them between 15 and 20 times a year. However, they do require extensive preparation as all work, including our crane operations, around the Wuppertaler suspension railway route requires a permit. The personnel working there must first register with the relevant department at the suspension railway and receive safety training”, says Dominik Fandrey, Dispatcher and Operations Manager at Wilden.
