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 began supplying mainly the larger sub-contractors to the then booming automotive industry
Around that same time, there was a strong industrial expansion in Spain. This period saw Imausa making more advanced machine tools, jigs and different kinds of tools for both external and in-house applications. Additionally, the company 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 immediately become among the biggest tourism magnets in the world. This mass expansion of course brought a parallel demand for schools, housing and hospitals among various other things. The company became very busy, very fast.
Production
The very first simple cranes produced were saddle-jib. These machines were best suited for the particular building methods being utilized at that time. The first crane model eventually grew into a variety 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 that exceed the 900 metric ton capacity. There is presently manufacturing and design facilities that permit the development and production of more incredible and even larger machinery.
The unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane offers several particular advantages that has made it a popular machine for Linden Comansa clients all around the world. These global customers have bought approximately 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the approximately 6000 equipments manufactured by Linden-Alimak in Sweden. These various other cranes were manufactured prior to the acquisition of the world-wide selling and manufacturing rights of this particular modular system.
