In the tightest of corners, in a prime location – WOLFF 166 B in use at the Maximiliansplatz, Munich
ID: 1090017
Munich - July 2014 Sky rocketing property prices for years on end have not detracted from the popularity of Munich's old town. New living and work areas are in demand like never before. A new office building is currently being built in an exclusive setting on the heritage-listed Maximiliansplatz. The building was fully leased even before construction began in 2013. The general contractor, Riedel Bau GmbH & Co. KG from Lower Franconia, rented one of WOLFFKRAN’s most modern cranes for the construction of the building shell: the WOLFF 166 B with hydraulic luffing gear.
Space saving, full performance
Despite its compactness, the WOLFF delivers a remarkable performance when it comes to lifting of concrete and structural components at the Munich site: It has a maximum lifting capacity of 12 tons in the 2-fall operation, a tip load capacity of 3.4 tons with a 45 meter jib and a maximum lifting speed of 87 m/min. The load-sensing control of the luffing gear regulates the luffing speed according to the load. So the 166 B only needs a comparably small 22 kW motor to reach a luffing time of 90 seconds.
The 166 B scores further points on the city-center building site when it comes to the assembly. The hoist rope winch is designed so that the complete jib can be easily pre-assembled on the ground. The luffing crane could also be erected on a lower tower height than would have been the case with a saddle jib crane, which saved additional time. Earlier this year, the construction site team erected the WOLFF 166 B in just one day – yet another plus given the tight schedule of the construction project, which is due for completion at the beginning of 2015.
