“This machine will be added to Sims’ growing presence in the Atlanta market as we start to spread through the southeast,” said Jackson Sims, vice president of Sims Crane and affiliates. 

The LTM 1090-4.2 is a four axle, 110-ton-class crane with a 197-foot telescopic boom and a maximum hoist height of 249 feet. It features the VarioBallast, an adjustable ballast system which delivers greater flexibility in action, and the VarioBase system, which enhances the crane’s performance, flexibility and safety, the company said.

The VarioBase ensures safe operation in constricted working conditions. The maximum lifting capacities are calculated individually and precisely and ECOdrive and ECOmode reduce fuel consumption and noise emissions.
