Removable counterweights for easier transportation of construction machinery
What is necessary for work on many construction sites can be an obstacle for transportation: Machines that are extremely wide or heavy. For companies that have to transport their machines (or have them transported) from construction site to construction site, a hurdle race begins with the legal requirements and the time pressure from the client. Both the low loader / low bed must be designed for the size and weight of the machine. In addition, the transport route must also be selected according to width or weight restrictions, for example on bridges, which often leads to long detours and imposes additional costs on companies.
It’s good if there are alternatives in such cases too. Like this Liebherr R945 with lowerable counterweight, for example. At the touch of a button, 9.7 tons can be set down and transported separately. After all, a few tons more or less are sometimes crucial to avoid having to apply for an individual permit for each transport.
