    The Liebherr LR 1350/1-LN crawler crane is being used to replace the corroded outer skin of the Atomium in Brussels with new steel plates. Each day, segments measuring up to 16 square meters are lifted over 100 meters high by the crane and installed on the underside and other difficult to reach areas of the spherical structure. The LR 1350/1-LN model is lighter than previous cranes, allowing for longer boom lengths and heavier loads to be lifted at greater radii. It can also be easily transported in standard trucks for use on job sites around Europe.
