Mini crane rental: maximum lifting power in the tightest spaces

When conventional crane systems reach their limits, mini cranes come into their own. At Luibl Rental we offer you specialised solutions for lifting tasks in confined areas, on sensitive surfaces or indoors. A mini crane, often also called a mini crawler crane or spider crane, combines an enormous load capacity with extremely compact transport dimensions.

The decision to rent a mini crane is usually driven by the structural conditions on site. Thanks to their low dead weight and variable outriggers, these machines can be used on intermediate floors, in backyards or even in industrial halls that are inaccessible to mobile cranes. Luibl Rental provides you with state-of-the-art technology that allows precise work down to the millimetre.

When professionals rent a mini crawler crane, the choice often falls on the Maeda brand. These cranes are regarded in the industry as proven and reliable. At Luibl Rental we offer a wide range of Maeda models that impress with their reliability and technical sophistication.

A key advantage of renting a Maeda crane is the versatility of the drive concepts. Many of our models have an electric or hybrid drive. In electric mode this allows work without local emissions in enclosed buildings or noise-sensitive areas such as hospitals and residential areas. The intuitive controls also ensure that even complex lifting operations can be carried out safely and efficiently.

A mini crane from Luibl Rental is more than just a simple lifting device. With various specifications and attachments we adapt the machine exactly to the requirements of your project:

• Floor protection: Our mini crawler cranes are fitted with rubber tracks that leave no marks even on high-quality industrial floors.

• Vacuum lifters: For glazing work the cranes can be combined with vacuum lifting systems to install heavy panes precisely into facades.

• Fly-Jib: To extend the reach and overcome obstacles, additional jib extensions can be fitted.

• Precision: The sensitive radio remote control allows the operator to guide the load from the optimum perspective, which significantly increases safety on the construction site.

In a demanding project in a densely built-up city centre, a 500 kg glass pane had to be replaced on the third floor of a rear building. A conventional crane would have blocked the access road and exceeded the load-bearing capacity of the ground.

The solution from Luibl Rental: a Maeda mini crawler crane. The machine was manoeuvred through a narrow gateway less than one metre wide. Thanks to the variable spider legs, the crane could be set up stably despite the uneven ground. With the help of a vacuum lifter, the installation was completed safely within a few hours - without expensive road closures.

Buying a mini crane involves high investment costs and usually only pays off with permanent utilisation. Renting offers decisive advantages:

• No capital tied up

• No maintenance or repair costs

• Flexible rental period - from a few days to a long-term solution

• Always access to modern technology

This keeps you flexible and lets you calculate your projects efficiently.

Whether the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Switzerland or other European countries - Luibl Rental delivers mini cranes reliably to your job site, by low-loader from Passau throughout the Czech Republic. On request you can also receive combined offers with other machines such as aerial work platforms or telehandlers.

No project is too small or too large: from glass facade installation to machine relocation - Luibl Rental works with you to develop the right rental solution. You can find further crane models in our crane overview.

The rental price depends on load capacity, radius, drive and rental period. What matters is not the maximum load capacity but the load at the radius you actually need - a crane that lifts 3 tonnes right next to the mast manages only a fraction of that at full radius.

• Machine class: From the compact machine that fits through a standard door to the large crawler crane for facade and steel construction projects.
• Drive: Models with electric drive for indoor operation without local emissions, combustion engines or combinations for outdoor use.
• Attachments: Vacuum lifters, load hooks, spreader beams and radio remote control are charged separately.
• Rental period: Daily, weekly and monthly rates are tiered.
• Transport: Delivery by our own low-loader from Passau, shown separately.

The rate includes an inspected machine with valid documentation as designated lifting equipment, maintenance during the rental period and technical advice on the set-up. Tell us the load weight, radius, lift height, access situation and ground bearing capacity - and you will receive an itemised quote.

For glazing work we combine mini crane and vacuum technology in one delivery; background information in the guide Mini crane and vacuum lifters in glazing work. Larger loads with free access are handled by the mobile crane.
