Linden Comansa was a corporation that started making jig and tool during the early 1960s. They went by the name "Imausa". The company began supplying mainly the bigger sub-contractors to the then booming automotive business
There was a strong industrial expansion within Spain during that same time. This period saw Imausa making more sophisticated jigs, machine tools and different kinds of tools for both external and in-house use. Furthermore, the corporation specialized in manufacturing pre-fabricated steel structures specially for industrial buildings.
The company's most logical and next step was into the crane market. The Spanish tourist industry exploded to immediately become amongst the largest tourism magnets in the world. This mass expansion of course brought a parallel demand for housing, hospitals and schools among other things. The corporation became very busy, really fast.
Production
The very first simple cranes produced were saddle-jib. These machinery were best suited for the particular building methods being utilized at that time. The first crane model eventually grew into a range of cranes with a capacity ranging from 12 to 42 metric-tons.
Linden Comansa saddle-jib cranes had already met the 200 metric-ton barrier by the early 1970s. Linden Comansa has surpassed the standard and has continued to engineer and design cranes which surpass the 900 metric ton capacity. There is presently manufacturing and design facilities that allow the development and production of even larger and more incredible machinery.
There are several particular advantages offered by the unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane, that made it a logical addition to the range Linden Comansa offered to clients all around the world. These global clients have purchased approximately 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the roughly 6000 equipments made in Sweden by Linden-Alimak. These different other cranes were made before the acquisition of the world-wide selling and manufacturing rights of this specific modular system.
