"GOOD LUCK AND OLÉ OLÉ, FC SCHALKE 04!"
2003
Two new crawler cranes – a Liebherr LR 1350 and a Liebherr LR 1750 – are added to the company fleet. The Liebherr LR 1750 crawler crane has a maximum load capacity of 750 t and a maximum hook height of 180 m.
2004
Anniversary and a sad loss
The company’s 40th anniversary will always be linked to a sad event. On 1 August 2004, the company founder Franz Bracht passes away far too young, at the age of just 68. The industry says farewell to a great personality.
2005
2009
The heavyweight world champion
With its maximum load capacity of 1,200 t and its telescopic boom length of 100 m, Liebherr’s LTM 11200 telescopic crane is the strongest telescopic crane in the world.
2010
The strong success trio
The company purchases another Terex Demag CC 2800 lattice boom crawler crane, which significantly increases the power and attractiveness of Bracht’s fleet of equipment. As a result, the company now offers three machines of the same model in the performance class with a load capacity of 600 t. These models not only provide top-quality load-bearing capacities across all fields of work but also offer simplified assembly, extremely short setup times and a variable superlift radius.
