Linden Comansa has produced more than 16,000 cranes ever since the year 1963. The very first Linden 8000 cranes were made by Linden-Alimak, in the year 1977 within Sweden. These models are considered to be some of the first Flat-Top cranes used for construction reasons. The actual idea of Flat-Top did not evolve until the Linden Comansa company adopted this particular description during the early part of the 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is currently a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still produced by the company. They also manufacture the LC 500 Series, which is an update from their popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the latest 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 provide 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 provides. A few of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and improvements made to the design have really enhanced the comfort, capacity and efficiency of these machines, making them a really popular piece of machine. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in offering their clients a durable, dependable, quality machine that is successful in many 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 a lot easier to erect overall.
