Since the year 1963, Linden Comansa has made roughly 16,000 cranes. In Sweden during the year 1977, the very first Linden 8000 cranes were made by Linden-Alimak. These models are considered to be among the very first Flat-Top cranes used for construction reasons. The actual concept of Flat-Top did not change until the Linden Comansa company adopted this particular description in the early 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is now 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 goal of this range is an update of the well-known NT Series. Comansa introduced the latest flat-top design and crane technology. This series features a range of flat-top cranes made up of 4 kinds. These flat-top cranes provide a maximum jib-end load of one ton and have lengths from 35 meters up to 50 meters.
Starting in the summer of the year 2008, the LC 1100 Series provides lots of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series which Linden Comansa provides. Some 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 equipments, making them a highly popular piece of machine. The technology has grown and the company takes pride in providing their customers a dependable, durable, quality equipment that is very 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 hoisting and slewing systems, along with the electric cabinets are pre-installed at the factory within the cat head and then delivered in this fashion to the customer. Furthermore, in comparison to the prior series, the lesser weight of the slewing structure makes the crane a lot easier to erect overall.
