New LICCON3 Control System Added to Liebherr’s 120t Mobile Crane

Liebherr’s  LTM 1120-4.1 becomes the LTM 1120-4.2.

New additions to the 4-axle 120t crane include:

  • LICCON3
  • the new future-oriented crane design
  •  TraXon DynamicPerform oil-cooled starting clutch
  •  new driver assistance systems for increasing driving safety on the road.

The family of Liebherr mobile cranes boasting the latest crane design and next-generation LICCON3 control system is growing. Not only will all completely new crane types receive the new control system, but Liebherr will also successively be converting its existing crane types. To signify the changes, the last digit of the type designation is incremented by one: the LTM 1120-4.1 is now the LTM 1120-4.2. The cranes’ performance parameters and lifting capacities remain unchanged.

With what is now the third generation of the LICCON control system (Liebherr Computed Control), Liebherr is taking proven operating concepts to a new technological level – completely new software and programming language, faster data bus, significantly more memory and higher computing power. The changeover remains child’s play for crane operators: the familiar operating concept ensures a high recognition value, so that the switch to the new control system is seamless.

Proven hardware components, such as the mobile operating and display unit BTT, have been adopted. The touchscreen function on the new large display in the superstructure cab means that it is now even easier and more comfortable to control. The way in which the information is shown has also been revised and simplified. In addition, LICCON3 cranes are prepared for telemetry and fleet management as standard. In the future, crane contractors will be able to view and evaluate all the relevant data using the MyLiebherr customer portal.

In addition to the new crane control and the new design, the LTM 1120-4.2 also has other technical features that increase efficiency, comfort and safety. The innovative DynamicPerform clutch module provides almost wear-free starting and manoeuvring for the modular ZF TraXon gearbox without overheating, because it transmits the engine output via an oil-cooled multi-disc package. New assistance systems, such as Blind Spot Information System and Moving Off Information System, increase driving safety in road traffic.

 

The RemoteDrive control desk enables the operator to manoeuvre the crane from outside, a massive advantage on constricted sites

 

The LTM 1120-4.2 will also be prepared for the use of RemoteDrive as standard. This allows the mobile crane to be driven from the outside with wireless remote control – a major benefit on cramped construction sites. Liebherr has also decided to equip the new crane with the popular VarioBase® variable supporting base as standard.

Liebherr now also offers new options for the LTM 1120-4.2 that are very popular with other crane types, such as the central lubrication system for the chassis or the digital tyre inflation pressure display. Liebherr thus supports its customers in operating a well-serviced and fail-safe crane in their fleet.
