Since 1963, Linden Comansa has made approximately 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden during the year 1977, the very first Linden 8000 cranes were made by Linden-Alimak. These models are considered to be some of the very first Flat-Top cranes utilized for construction purposes. The actual concept of Flat-Top did not evolve 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 manufactured by the company. They also produce the LC 500 Series, that is an update from their popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the latest crane technology and the flat-top design. This series features a range 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 offers lots of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series which Linden Comansa provides. Several of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and enhancements made to the design have really improved these machines' capacity, efficiency and comfort, making them a really sought after piece of machine. The technology has developed and the business takes pride in offering all their customers a reliable, durable, quality equipment that is successful in a lot 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 client. Additionally, compared to the prior series, the lesser weight of the slewing structure makes the crane a lot easier to erect overall.
