Ever since 1963, Linden Comansa has made around 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden in the year 1977, the first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak. These models are considered to be among the 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 currently a universally excepted term.
The flat top crane design is still produced by the company. They also produce the LC 500 Series, which is an update from their popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the newest crane technology and the flat-top design. This series features a range of flat-top cranes consisting 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 offers a lot of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series which Linden Comansa provides. A few of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and enhancements made to the design have greatly improved these machines' capacity, efficiency and comfort, making them a really popular piece of equipment. The technology has developed and the business takes pride in providing all their clients a durable, dependable, quality machinery that is really successful in a lot of different environments.
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. Moreover, compared to the prior series, the slewing structure's lesser weight makes the crane a lot easier to erect overall.
