Linden Comansa has manufactured more than 16,000 cranes since 1963. The first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak, in the year 1977 in Sweden. These models are considered to be among the very first Flat-Top cranes used for construction reasons. The actual idea of Flat-Top did not evolve until the Linden Comansa company implemented this particular description in the early part of the 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is now a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still manufactured by the company. They also produce 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 consisting of 4 models. These flat-top cranes have lengths from 35 meters up to 50 meters and provide 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 efficiency, comfort and capacity of these machines, making them a really popular piece of equipment. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in offering all their clients a durable, dependable, quality equipment which is very 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 hoisting and slewing 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. In addition, compared to the prior series, the slewing structure's lesser weight makes the crane much easier to erect overall.
