Since 1963, Linden Comansa has manufactured approximately 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden in the year 1977, the very first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak. These units are considered to be among the first Flat-Top cranes utilized for construction reasons. The actual idea of Flat-Top did not change until the Linden Comansa company implemented this particular description during the early part of the 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is now a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still produced by the company. They also manufacture the LC 500 Series, that is an update from their popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the newest crane technology and the flat-top design. This series features a variety 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 2008, the LC 1100 Series provides a lot of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series that Linden Comansa offers. Some of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and enhancements made to the design have really enhanced the comfort, capacity and efficiency of these machines, making them a really popular piece of machinery. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in providing all their clients a durable, reliable, quality equipment that is successful in lots of different settings.
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 in the cat head and then delivered in this fashion to the customer. Moreover, compared to the prior series, the lesser weight of the slewing structure makes the crane much easier to erect overall.
