Bigge Crane and Rigging has added two new models to its large crane rental fleet, the Grove RT9130 rough terrain crane and Liebherr LR 1600/2 crawler crane. Several of each model are available for both nationwide bare rental and operated and maintained rental.
Crane fleet
The Grove RT9130 is a large capacity rough terrain crane ideal for work at refineries as well as for general civil and industrial construction projects. It has a reach well over 200 feet, with attachments, the longest reach of any rough terrain crane. Its maximum capacity of 120 tons is also best in class. This crane is ideally suited for setting cages, tailing refinery vessels, and erecting tower crane sections.
The Liebherr LR1600/2 is among the largest crawler cranes in Bigge’s fleet at 660 tons. It is the best machine on the market for erecting sails on 100 meter wind turbines, and has a larger capacity and more reach than competing cranes, the Manitowoc 16000 and Demag CC2800. It’s equipped with 108 meters of boom allowing it to lift up to 93 tons at an 18 meter radius. The new Liebherr’s are deployed out of our regional headquarters in Houston, and are available now for heavy lift and wind turbine erection tasks.
