ALKALINE Subsidiary Comlev Takes Delivery of new Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1Liebherr – Comlev prend livraison du nouveau LTM 1120-4.1 de Liebherr

The French company ALKALINE has taken delivery of a new Liebherr crane. As the second largest crane in the fleet of its subsidiary Comlev, the LTM 1120-4.1 impresses with its mobility, flexibility and compact dimensions.

Comlev is expanding its fleet with a new Liebherr mobile crane, thereby increasing efficiency even in confined spaces. Now the company is not only ideally equipped for current tasks, but will also be able to tackle even more challenging projects in the future. “With a compact four-axle machine like the LTM 1120-4.1, we will have easier access to urban construction sites moving forward,” explain Karine and Laurent Lucas, the managing owners. This is ensured by the mechanically adjustable VarioBallast^®, which allows the counter ballast radius to be reduced from 4.77m to 3.83m, for example. The Liebherr crane is also equipped with the proven VarioBase^® technology, which increases safety during crane operations, especially in confined spaces. In addition, the 120t machine offers higher lifting capacities and a larger working area when its support base is at the maximum setting. Added to this is its low total weight of 48t – the newly acquired mobile crane is road-ready with an axle load of 12t. “This means it can tackle jobs which would normally require a five-axle crane, with all the logistics work that involves. “All in all, the LTM 1120-4.1 gives us more flexibility and lower transport costs,” says Karine happily.

With its long 66m telescopic boom, the LTM 1120-4.1 can reach a lifting height of 64m in the upright position. The mobile crane is also equipped with the Telematik fast-cycle telescoping system to quickly and automatically raise the boom to the required length and achieve the highest possible lifting capacities.

Comlev was founded over 40 years ago in response to growing demand in the material handling, lifting and industrial sectors in the Amiens region. Since then, the company’s growth has seen it open up additional business areas. It is now also active in the areas of working platforms and storage.

Today, Comlev employs 16 people, including eleven crane drivers who are deployed on around 1,100 construction sites every year. Comlev now has a total of six machines for lifting jobs. The new 120t Liebherr crane is the second largest in its fleet and will be used primarily in industry and on urban construction sites. “In addition to their technology and excellent customer service, we value Liebherr’s reliability and professionalism – that’s why we opted for another Liebherr crane,” says Laurent.

Pourquoi la Liebherr 1120-4.1 ?

Mobilité et flexibilité : Montée sur un châssis à quatre essieux, cette grue allie parfaitement compacité et mobilité, permettant une utilisation efficace même dans les espaces les plus restreints.

Technologie de pointe : Équipée des dernières avancées technologiques de Liebherr, elle offre une précision et une sécurité maximale, garantissant des opérations de levage fluides et fiables.

Puissance et Portée Impressionnantes : Avec une capacité de levage maximale de 120t et une portée de flèche 66m, la 1120-4.1 devient notre deuxième plus grosse grue. Elle permet donc gérer des charges plus lourdes et des projets plus ambitieux.
