Enercon debuts new 'BladeLifter G4'
Enercon has used its new Scheuerle 'BladeLifter G4' for the first time during rotor blade transports to the Olsbrücken wind farm in Rhineland-Palatinate. The recently delivered system from TII Scheuerle enabled the movement of 68-metre-long blades through tight village streets, railway crossings and winding access roads.
According to the manufacturer the hydraulic lifter can raise and pivot blades up to 60 degrees. The technology was deployed for two new Enercon E-138 EP3 turbines with a hub height of 160 metres. "The BladeLifter G4 opens up new possibilities for us in the transport of our rotor blades," said Björn Feddermann, global logistics project manager at Enercon. (js)
