Lampson International will deliver a heavy lift crane, LTL 3000 to Hitachi for their 3,000 tonne capacity machine. LTL 3000 is designed for power plant work and construction of the latest boiling water reactor at Higashidori-I nuclear power plant for Tokyo Electric Co.
The crane will utilise a new hydraulic winch system with a two inch-diameter wire to help increase the lifting potential and the hoisting speed. Further, it is 400 feet high and has a 120 ft jib.
