Original article on OddityCentral.com – a blog on oddities and wacky news http://www.odditycentral.com/

Transporting wind turbine components is difficult enough, but putting them all together is a different matter entirely. First, there is the terrain, as land-based wind turbines are usually located in large fields or on hills, where some construction equipment simply cannot reach. Then there is the assembly process, which requires specialized machinery. And that’s where the Liebherr LTM 11200-9.1 comes in!

Featuring a 9-axle chassis, a Y-guying system designed for increased lifting capacities, as well as the world’s longest telescopic boom (328 feet or 100 meters), the Liebherr LTM 11200-9.1 is one of the most impressive pieces of construction machinery ever created.

Lattice boom cranes are good at a lot of things, but less so at assembling wind turbines in difficult terrain. The Liebherr LTM 11200-9.1 was designed with this task in mind. It features all-terrain driving capabilities with active, speed-dependent rear-axle steering for enhanced maneuverability, and a total weight of 1,323 tons, which allows it to lift massive weights of up to 1,200 tons without requiring significant counterweights.

Despite its massive weight, the Liebherr LTM 11200-9.1 can reach speeds of up to 75 km/h (47mph), allowing it to cover long distances relatively easily.
