BAUMA
W
ith an impressive freestanding
height under hook of 80.9 m and
a jib length of 80 m, the 21LC750
tower crane from Linden Comansa could be
seen from every corner of the bauma 2016
trade show. This model formed part of the
exhibits from tower crane manufacturer
Linden Comansa and German partner BKL
Baukran Logistik GmbH, a leading crane
rental, sales and service company in Cen-
tral Europe.
The exhibited 21LC750, with 48 tonnes of
maximum load capacity and flat-top design,
has been sold to BKL, who will add it to
its rental fleet. With this purchase and the
stunning exhibition of the crane at bauma,
the German based crane specialist BKL
strengthens its position in the large tower
crane market (up to 750 tonne-metre), now
able to equip big industrial and infrastructure
projects.
Another Linden Comansa exhibit at bauma
was a 11LC160 flat-top tower crane,
with maximum load capacity of 8 tonnes,
monoblock mast sections and steel framed
counterweights. The 11LC160, which will
join the rental fleet of BKL, and the 21LC750
is the first of a large order
from BKL to manufacturer
Linden Comansa.
Linden Comansa also show-
cased a LCL 280 luffing-jib
crane, which had never seen
before at any trade show.
The LCL family of luffers,
including this model, feature
important improvements re-
cently applied in response to
the suggestions and ideas of
Linden Comansa’s custom-
ers worldwide.
bauma 2016 was a very suc-
cessful show for Linden Co-
mansa: Many customers and dealers visited
the booth, including sister companies Linden
Comansa America from the U.S. and Coman-
sa CM from China; Potential dealers and cus-
tomers brought new opportunities in several
markets; Orders worth more than 5 million
Euro were confirmed during the trade show,
most of them for tower cranes from the me-
dium and large range of flat-tops; And last
but not least, Linden Comansa and German
partner BKL strengthened its relationship.
It rained quite a lot during the week in
Munich, but bauma 2016 could not have
been better for Linden Comansa.
