Linden Comansa has made over 16,000 cranes since 1963. The very first Linden 8000 cranes were made by Linden-Alimak, during the year 1977 in Sweden. These models are considered to be amongst the first Flat-Top cranes used for construction purposes. The actual concept of Flat-Top did not change until the Linden Comansa company implemented this particular description in the early 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is currently a universally excepted term.
The company continues to develop the flat-top crane design even nowadays. They have proudly developed the LC 500 Series. The main objective of this range is an update of the popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the newest crane technology and the flat-top design. This series features a range of flat-top cranes made up of 4 models. These flat-top cranes have lengths from 35 meters up to 50 meters and offer a maximum jib-end load of one ton.
Starting in the summer of the year 2008, the LC 1100 Series provides lots of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series that Linden Comansa offers. Several of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and improvements made to the design have really enhanced the capacity, efficiency and comfort of these machinery, making them a really popular piece of machine. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in providing their customers a durable, dependable, quality machine which is successful in many different environments.
The new LC 1100 series is easier erect, while keeping the Flat-Top system in place. This is due in part because the slewing and hoisting systems, along with the electric cabinets are pre-installed at the factory inside the cat head and then delivered in this fashion to the client. Moreover, compared to the prior series, the slewing structure's lesser weight makes the crane a lot easier to erect overall.
