From 30-ton telescopic cranes to 600-ton lattice boom crawler cranes, and from compact mini excavators to 80-ton hydraulic excavators — Link-Belt equipment delivers proven performance on construction sites, infrastructure projects, and mining operations across 85+ countries.
Link-Belt cranes and excavators are purpose-built for construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications — every unit factory-tested to rated capacity before shipment.
Lattice boom crawler cranes from 80 to 600 tons lifting capacity. Designed for bridge construction, heavy industrial lifts, and wind turbine erection with excellent ground-bearing characteristics.
All-terrain and rough terrain telescopic cranes from 30 to 300 tons. Rapid deployment, full counterweight self-installation, and superior on-road mobility for multi-site operations.
Crawler and wheeled excavators from 8 to 80 tons operating weight. Advanced hydraulic systems deliver high breakout force with fuel efficiency — built for mass excavation, trenching, and demolition.
Link-Belt equipment earns its reputation through measurable project results — not marketing claims. Here are three recent deployments.
300-ton crawler crane deployed for 14-month girder erection program. Completed 248 lifts without a single unplanned downtime day.
Fleet of four 50-ton excavators completed 380,000 m³ of earth removal for underground station construction across 18 months of continuous operation.
Two 500-ton crawler cranes erected 42 wind turbines across a remote prairie site. Hub height 105 m, nacelle weight 82 tons — completed 6 weeks ahead of schedule.
Six reasons equipment managers and procurement teams continue to specify Link-Belt for their most demanding projects.
Since 1874, Link-Belt has manufactured lifting and earthmoving equipment that performs under the most demanding job site conditions — a track record validated by three generations of contractors.
Regional parts depots stock critical hydraulic components, wire ropes, and undercarriage parts. Emergency orders shipped within 24 hours to minimize downtime costs on active construction sites.
Every crane ships with CE Declaration of Conformity (2006/42/EC) and meets ASME B30 safety standards. Excavators comply with EPA Tier 4 Final emission requirements for all North American job sites.
In-house engineering team configures boom combinations, counterweight arrangements, and attachment packages to match your exact lift plan or excavation profile — not a one-size-fits-all catalogue selection.
Certified operator and maintenance training programs delivered on-site or at regional training centers. Reduce operational risk and improve equipment utilization rates from day one.
Reinforced boom sections, hardened pin joints, and sealed track systems extend machine service life beyond 20,000 operating hours — delivering lower total cost of ownership across multi-year fleet deployments.
Link-Belt cranes and excavators are specified by contractors and equipment managers across these core sectors.
Steel erection, precast concrete placement, and general construction lifts for high-rise, commercial, and institutional building projects.
Girder erection, deck panel placement, and heavy lift operations for highway, railway, and port infrastructure construction.
Wind turbine erection, transformer installation, and power plant construction. Cranes configured for long reach and high hub height requirements.
Mass excavation, overburden removal, and material handling for open-pit mining and quarry operations with excavators built for abrasive conditions.
Refinery turnaround lifts, vessel installation, and maintenance crane deployment for industrial plant construction and shutdown projects.
Foundation excavation, site preparation, and material handling for large-scale residential subdivision and multi-family housing developments.
Pipeline trenching, pump station excavation, and treatment plant construction requiring precise excavation in confined urban environments.
Earthmoving and grading for highway construction, rail corridor expansion, and airport runway projects requiring high-volume excavation.
"We have operated Link-Belt crawler cranes on bridge projects across three states over the past decade. Their uptime record is consistently above 95% — which on a DOT project with liquidated damages, is the only metric that matters."
"The 50-ton excavator fleet we purchased for our metro rail project maintained 96% availability across 18 months of double-shift operation. Parts availability from the regional depot was never an issue."
"Link-Belt's engineering team configured a custom boom combination for our refinery turnaround that allowed us to complete vessel lifts from a single crane position — saving 3 days of repositioning time and $180,000 in crane rental costs."
