Felbermayr Expands Fleet with Three Grove All-Terrain Cranes

Felbermayr has strengthened its lifting fleet with the addition of three Grove all-terrain cranes, including two GMK3060L-1 units and a 400-tonne GMK6400-1, following a handover at Manitowoc’s Wilhelmshaven plant.

30-Second Takeaway Austrian heavy lift and transport specialist Felbermayr has added three Grove all-terrain cranes to its fleet, taking delivery of two GMK3060L-1 cranes and a GMK6400-1. Handed over at Manitowoc’s Wilhelmshaven facility, the new cranes will support operations in Vienna and Graz, with the 400-tonne GMK6400-1 already proving its value on demanding urban demolition work. Three New Grove Cranes for Austrian Operations Family-owned logistics and lifting company Felbermayr , headquartered in Wels, Austria , has expanded its crane fleet with the addition of three Grove all-terrain cranes . The delivery included two GMK3060L-1 units  and one GMK6400-1 , all of which were handed over at Manitowoc’s Grove manufacturing plant in Wilhelmshaven, Germany . Deployment Across Vienna and Graz Supporting Urban and Heavy Lift Projects The two GMK3060L-1  cranes are based at Felbermayr’s Lanzendorf headquarters  and will primarily support projects in Vienna , where compact dimensions and mobility are critical. The GMK6400-1  will be deployed in Graz  and represents the second 400-tonne Grove crane  in Felbermayr’s fleet. The decision to invest in a second unit followed positive operational experience with the company’s existing 400-tonne Grove crane, along with a detailed evaluation of the GMK6400-1’s capabilities. Proven Performance and Advanced Technology Why Felbermayr Chose the GMK6400-1 Felbermayr highlighted the crane’s lifting performance, reach and innovative features as key decision factors. Peter Stoettinger, CEO of Felbermayr Transport and Lifting Technology , said: “The GMK6400-1 offers exceptional lift capacities and unbeatable reach. Additionally, it has the impressive self-rigging Mega Wing Lift™, which can be assembled in less than 20 minutes. We saw a demonstration of the crane at Wilhelmshaven and had the opportunity to thoroughly inspect it. After this, we decided to purchase one. Some of the most reliable and powerful mobile cranes in the world are built at the Grove factory in Wilhelmshaven and have been for some time which is why we have steadily increased the number of Grove cranes in our fleet.” GMK6400-1: Strength and Efficiency Technical Capabilities The Grove GMK6400-1  is the strongest six-axle all-terrain crane on the market , offering: 400-tonne maximum lifting capacity Up to 135 tonnes of counterweight A 79-metre luffing jib  capable of lifting 8.9 tonnes to 133 metres  at a 50-metre radius Despite its high capacity, the crane delivers strong fuel efficiency, consuming approximately 75 litres per 100 km  during road travel. First Jobs on Site Demolition Work in Vienna The GMK6400-1 has already demonstrated its capabilities on site. One of its first assignments involved supporting the demolition of a building at the General Hospital in Vienna . For the project, the crane was configured with 54.6 metres of main boom , including the Mega Wing Lift™ , plus 25 metres of luffing jib  to lift a 22-tonne demolition excavator  into position. Due to tight space constraints, a six-axle crane  was required, and the GMK6400-1 was the only crane capable of delivering the necessary lifting capacity for the operation.
