Since the year 1963, Linden Comansa has manufactured approximately 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden during the year 1977, the first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak. These units are considered to be amongst the first Flat-Top cranes utilized for construction reasons. The actual idea of Flat-Top did not change until the Linden Comansa company adopted this particular description during the early part of the 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is presently a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still manufactured by the company. They also make 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 consisting 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 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 enhancements made to the design have really enhanced these machines' capacity, efficiency and comfort, making them an extremely sought after piece of machine. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in offering all their clients a reliable, durable, quality machine that is successful in many different settings.
The new LC 1100 series keeps the Flat-Top system in place, while still being a lot easier to erect. This is due to pre-installing the hoisting and slewing systems, along with the electric cabinets. These are installed at the factory and after that delivered to the client. Furthermore, in comparison to the prior series, the slewing structure's lesser weight makes the crane a lot easier to erect overall.
