Jinert’s Fleet Boosted with New Fourth LG 1750 and Repairs to One of Their Other LG 1750s

Swedish lifting and transport service provider Sven Jinert AB already had three 750t lattice boom cranes from Liebherr in its fleet. A fourth has now been added , a new LG 1750, equipped with an SX3 boom system. With this reinforced boom, the crane offers a 20 per cent increase in lifting capacity and significantly higher wind tolerances compared to the conventional SX version, this is a major benefit, especially for crane work in the wind power sector. “We opted for this mobile lattice boom crane to offer our customers maximum flexibility,” says Managing Director Björn Jinert. “We now have two lattice boom cranes on crawlers and two on wheels, among which we can swap and recombine the booms.”

As a lattice boom mobile crane, the LG 1750 combines the lifting capacity of a 750t crawler crane with the mobility of a fast-moving mobile crane. It has the crane slewing platform and boom system of the LR 1750 crawler crane as well as an eight-axle chassis with speed-dependent rear axle steering. This makes the crane ideal for fast assembly work.

 

 

Jinert has mobile cranes with lifting capacities from 25t to 800t. These include an LG 1550, which is used for the maintenance of wind turbines as well as in industrial and infrastructure projects. “Since we added this crane to our fleet in 2016, our experience with it has been excellent,” reports Jinert. Liebherr produced this crane type from 1992 to 2009, making it an easy decision to have the crane professionally repaired after it had recently come off a slippery road. The LG 1550 was taken to the repair centre in Ehingen-Berg where it was refurbished and repainted. The decision to repair the crane at the Liebherr location in southern Germany was based on the available capacity, the complexity of the damage and the size of the crane. For example, emergency repairs are also undertaken here at short notice and large cranes are repaired. “We are very satisfied with the repairs to our LG 1750 – the crane is like new again,” says Jinert.

Sven Jinert AB was founded in 1988 in Hässleholm, where its head office is still located today. The company added its first Liebherr crane, an LTM 1035-3, to its portfolio in 1990. With around 350 employees and offices in around 20 different locations in Sweden, the lifting and transport service provider offers modern equipment for lifting operations, special transport and heavy-duty transport.
