Linden Comansa was a corporation which began manufacturing tool and jig in the early parts of the 1960s. They went by the name "Imausa". The company started out 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 advanced machine tools, jigs and other tools for both in-house and external applications. What's more, the corporation specialized in manufacturing pre-fabricated steel structures especially for industrial buildings.
Imausa's initiation into the crane market was an almost inevitable if not logical step. The Spanish tourist business exploded to rapidly become one of the world's largest tourism magnets. This mass expansion of course brought a parallel demand for schools, housing and hospitals amongst other things. The corporation became extremely busy, very fast.
Production
The very first simple cranes produced were saddle-jib. These equipments were best suitable for the specific building methods being utilized during that time. The first crane model eventually grew into a variety 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 currently design and manufacturing facilities which allow the production and development of even larger and more incredible equipments.
The unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane offers some particular advantages that has made it a popular equipment for Linden Comansa customers all over the world. These customers all over the world have bought around 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the approximately 6000 machinery manufactured by Linden-Alimak within Sweden. These different other cranes were made prior to the acquisition of the world-wide selling and manufacturing rights of this particular modular system.
