From July, the smallest models of the new LC 1100 series will be available: the 11 LC 90 5t and the 11 LC 90 6t. The other four models in the series (the 5t 11 LC 132, 6t 11 LC 132, 8t 11 LC 150 and the 8t 11 LC 160) will be available from September.
The new series has a lot of innovations in comparison to the previous series of Linden Comansa cranes, a release issued by the Spanish manufacturer says.
While keeping the Flat-Top modular system, the new LC 1100 series is even easier to erect, mainly because the hoisting and slewing systems and the electric cabinets will be pre-installed within the cat head at the factory and delivered in this way to the customer. The lesser weight of the slewing structure in comparison to the previous series, also helps to make an easier erection of the crane.
The six models also incorporate innovations on the motorisation. The whole series has two slewing motors that reduce the stress of the crown; two hoist motors, with more hoist rope capacity on the drums and, consequently, higher under-hook heights. The single or single/double trolley system with an innovative automatic change controlled by the operator from the cab, substantially improves the adaptability of the crane to different loads and thus increases working efficiency.
The new LC 1100 series also includes a new cab position, at an optimum working height for the operator, providing a greater field of vision; as well as 2.5 meter long jib sections, which increases the range and load combination possibilities.
All these innovations, plus the benefits of the Flat-Top modular system without struts, make the 6 models of the LC 1100 Series the most modern cranes on the market, and a sure bet for Linden Comansa. With all the incorporated innovations to the new LC 1100 Series, Linden Comansa hopes to get more presence in its consolidated markets, while opening new opportunities in other territories.
