Sep 16, 2024

A new milestone in lifting technology: Liebherr introduces the LG 1800, an 800-ton gantry crane that combines innovation and power. Verschoor has the world’s first and is the first crane company to put this impressive crane into operation.

The LG 1800 is equipped with a 174 + 24 meter boom. Verschoor has opted for the innovative X3 mast system, which increases the lifting capacity and stability. In combination with the VarioTray ballast management system, the new 800-tonner is ideal for placing wind turbine components at great heights. This ultra-modern powerhouse effortlessly lifts loads of 130 tons to a height of 175 meters, making it extremely suitable for the ever-increasing wind turbines in the wind farms where Verschoor is active.

A nice addition to the fleet, this new LG 1800 X3, with which Verschoor further strengthens its position in the wind energy sector. Verschoor’s crane fleet for wind energy projects further consists of an LG 1550 (550 ton lifting capacity), two LG 1750 ‘s with SX3 mast system and an LG 1750 (750 ton lifting capacity) and last but not least, an LR 11000 with a lifting capacity of 1000 ton.
