LIEBHERR is expanding its mobile crane range with the new MK 120-5.1.
With a jib measuring 52m and a maximum lifting capacity of 2,100kg at its jib head, the five-axle machine bridges the gap between the MK 88-4.1 and the MK 140-5.1.
Liebherr described one of the model’s main advantages as agility, with its small turning circle facilitating site access via narrow streets and intersections.
The MK 120-5.1 is equipped with the new Liebherr TC-OS display. A 12-inch touch display can be used in split and full screen mode.
The crane can be ordered with an optional smaller load hook. This version is said to come into its own on sites with existing buildings where scaffolding is in place and the load has to be moved between the building and the scaffolding.
The first customers include Switzerland-based Zaugg AG Rohrbachare. “The MK 120-5.1 is exactly the right crane for our fleet. Its jib length and lifting capacity make it ideal for our customers’ construction sites,” said MD Stephan Zaugg. “We are excited to be the first ever customer to acquire the new MK. Reliability, customer service and the great reputation of Liebherr’s mobile construction cranes were deciding factors for our purchase.”
