Linden Comansa was a corporation which began manufacturing 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 industry
Around that same time, there was a strong industrial expansion within Spain. This period saw Imausa making more sophisticated jigs, machine tools and different kinds of tools for both external and in-house use. What's more, the corporation specialized in making pre-fabricated steel structures particularly for industrial buildings.
The company's most logical and next step was into the crane market. The Spanish tourist business exploded to rapidly become amongst the biggest tourism magnets within the globe. This mass expansion of course brought a parallel demand for hospitals, schools and housing amongst other things. The company became really busy, really fast.
Production
The first cranes that were manufactured were saddle-jib, simple cranes. They were mainly suitable to the building methods during that specific time. The first crane model eventually grew into a range of cranes with a capacity ranging from 12 to 42 metric-tons.
By the early 1970s, Linden Comansa saddle-jib cranes had already met the 200 metric-ton barrier. Linden Comansa has surpassed the standard and has continued to design and engineer cranes which exceed the 900 metric ton capacity. There is currently manufacturing and design facilities which allow the development and production of more spectacular and even bigger machinery.
The unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane offers some specific advantages which has made it a popular machine for Linden Comansa customers all around the world. These global clients have purchased about 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the roughly 6000 machines made by Linden-Alimak in Sweden. These other cranes were manufactured prior to the acquisition of the world-wide manufacturing and selling rights of this specific modular system.
