Linden Comansa America at ConExpo 2014

Linden Comansa America (LCA) will exhibit at the upcoming ConExpo-Con/Agg tradeshow, which will take place from March 4th to 8th in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. The sister company of Spanish tower crane manufacturer Linden Comansa will have a booth on stand 2181, at the Gold Lot of the outdoor exhibition area at the Las Vegas Convention Center. ConExpo is one of the worlds most important construction and machinery tradeshows (the #1 in the American continent), and it is expected to have more than 130,000 visitors at the 2014 edition.
At the show, LCA will explain all the new developments and cranes launched by Linden Comansa since the last edition of ConExpo back in 2011: The new LCL 165 luffing jib crane, which completed the LCL Series. This crane comes in two versions, 8 and 12 tons maximum load (17,640 and 26,450 lbs.); The new 21LC660 flat-top tower crane completes the LC2100 series. There are four versions of this crane (18, 24, 36 and 48 tons / 39,680, 52,910, 79,360 and 105,820 lbs.) which has Linden Comansa longest jib-length: 84 meters / 275.6 ft.; The new LC3000 series, Linden Comansas largest cranes. Each of the two models of the series, the 30LC1100 and the 30LC1450, come in three versions, with maximum loads of 32, 48 and 64 tons (70,550, 105,820 and 141,090 lbs.); The new LC1600 series, formed by three Flat-Top tower cranes. The 16LC185 comes in three different versions of maximum load capacity (8, 10 and 12t / 17,650, 22,040 and 26,450 lbs.), while the 16LCL220 and the 16LC260 come in two versions each (10 and 12t / 22,040 and 26,450 lbs.); The new PowerLift system, which allows an improvement of the load chart up to 10% with reduced speeds. This system comes as a standard on all of Linden Comansas models of Flat-Top tower cranes; The entire LC1100 and LC2100 Series have been recently reviewed, and now feature many new improvements.
Bill Carbeau, Linden Comansa Americas Vice President - Business Development expects a very successful show: "We are seeing signs of recovery on the construction sector in the U.S. especially in the civil side and we see rental rates and fleet utilization improving. Many projects are coming out now and our cranes are a great choice for new crane purchases. With the ease of assembly, original flat top design, fast smooth hoisting and other functions all rolled in to a reliable, well designed machine, we expect to see great interest at the show and beyond. I invite potential customers to stop by our booth and learn about our new "systems Approach" to fully supporting our customers."
The upcoming edition will be LCAs 4th consecutive participation at the ConExpo tradeshow. LCA was founded in 2002 to service the NAFTA countries in sale and after-sales services. Its premises, located in Pineville near Charlotte (North Carolina), include a large warehouse for tower crane components, spare-parts, and technical training.
