John Sutch Cranes invest in Liebherr’s innovative technology

John Sutch Cranes expands its fleet by welcoming an LTM 1110-5.2, the first Liebherr unit to be supplied with LICCON3

The LTM 1110-5.2 follows the successful popular LTM 1110-5.1, not only does the new model include the new third generation control system but other updates such as a ZF TraXon DynamicPerform gearbox and a new driver’s cab.


The five-axle crane boasts a 60 metre main boom, topped by a 10.8 to 19 metre double swingaway fly jib that can be hydraulically offset by up to 40 degrees. Two extra inserts can be added between the boom nose and extension to provide a maximum tip height of 96 metres. Additionally, the crane has been equipped with Variobase® for increased safety and capacity when lifting, and remote drive for all super structure functions.


In the UK the 110-tonner can carry 29 tonnes of its 45 tonnes of counterweight on board when travelling.


John Sutch, Managing Director of John Sutch Cranes, said: “We are thrilled to add the Liebherr LTM 1110-5.2 to our fleet, marking a significant step forward in our capabilities.

"The advanced LICCON3 control system, along with other modern updates, ensures we can provide even better service to our customers. It's already been put to work and is making a big impression.

"We teamed this with our Liebherr LTM 1450-8.1 on a job for a repeat client and it has delivered a brilliant result. This crane’s impressive specifications and versatile features make it a valuable addition, reflecting our commitment to staying at the forefront of crane technology.”


Last year the company took delivery of its biggest investment, a Liebherr LTM 1450-8.1, the largest unit in its fleet.
