Since the year 1963, Linden Comansa has produced approximately 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden during the year 1977, the very first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak. 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 change until the Linden Comansa company implemented this particular description during the early 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is now a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still produced by the company. They also make the LC 500 Series, that is an update from their well-known NT Series. Comansa introduced the newest flat-top design and crane technology. This series features a variety of flat-top cranes consisting of 4 models. These flat-top cranes offer a maximum jib-end load of one ton and have lengths from 35 meters up to 50 meters.
Starting in the summer of 2008, the LC 1100 Series provides many 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 greatly improved these machines' comfort, capacity and efficiency, making them an extremely popular piece of equipment. The technology has developed and the business takes pride in providing all their customers a dependable, durable, quality machinery that is really 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. Moreover, compared to the prior series, the lesser weight of the slewing structure makes the crane much easier to erect overall.
