Linden Comansa was a corporation which began making tool and jig during the early parts of the 1960s. They went by the name "Imausa". The company started out supplying mostly the larger sub-contractors to the then booming automotive business
Around that same time, there was a strong industrial expansion in Spain. This period saw Imausa making more sophisticated machine tools, jigs and other tools for both external and in-house use. The company even specialized in making pre-fabricated steel structures specially for industrial buildings.
The company's next and most logical step was into the crane market. The Spanish tourist business exploded to soon 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 company became extremely busy, really fast.
Production
The first simple cranes made were saddle-jib. These machinery were best suitable for the specific building methods being utilized during that time. The very 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 design and engineer cranes which exceed the 900 metric ton capacity. There is presently manufacturing and design facilities that permit the production and development of even bigger and more incredible equipments.
There are some particular advantages offered by the unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane, which made it a logical addition to the range Linden Comansa offered to customers all around the globe. These customers all around the globe have purchased roughly 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the approximately 6000 equipments manufactured in Sweden by Linden-Alimak. These different other cranes were made prior to the acquisition of the world-wide selling and manufacturing rights of this specific modular system.
