Linden Comansa was a company which started manufacturing 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 business
Around that same time, there was a strong industrial expansion within Spain. This period saw Imausa making more sophisticated machine tools, jigs and various kinds of tools for both in-house and external use. Additionally, the company specialized in making pre-fabricated steel structures particularly for industrial buildings.
The company's next and most logical step was into the crane market. The Spanish tourist industry exploded to soon become amongst the biggest tourism magnets within the world. This mass expansion of course brought a parallel demand for schools, housing and hospitals amongst different other things. The company became really busy, really fast.
Production
The very first cranes that were made were saddle-jib, simple cranes. They were mainly suited to the building methods at that particular 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 that exceed the 900 metric ton capacity. There is presently manufacturing and design facilities which allow the production and development of even larger and more spectacular machinery.
The unique Linden 8000 Modular System crane provides some specific benefits which has made it a popular equipment for Linden Comansa clients all over the globe. These global clients have bought roughly 12,000 Linden Comansa cranes in addition to the roughly 6000 equipments made by Linden-Alimak within Sweden. These other cranes were made before the acquisition of the world-wide manufacturing and selling rights of this specific modular system.
