The LTM 1030-2.1 mobile crane, which was launched in 1997 with the name LTM 1030/2, was the first mobile crane in the world to feature data bus transfer technology. This innovative technology enabled the 2-axle crane to achieve major enhancements in terms of the functionality and reliability of mobile cranes. On the basis of this crane, the LTM 1030-2.1 has undergone a series of revisions and now represents the state of the art of mobile crane technology. Well over 2500 of these 2-axle cranes have been built. That makes it the best-selling mobile crane in the world and the most successful crane model in the history of all-terrain mobile cranes.
