5 Ton Wire Rope Hoist for Wind Turbines Maintenance in Argentina

Two 5 ton wire rope hoists were required for the construction of the wind farm Vientos in Argentina.
 
Wind turbines are used to generate electricity in areas with strong, steady winds – either on land or offshore. Almost all modern turbines being produced today use a three-bladed, upwind design. Wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft. The shaft connects to a generator, which produces electricity.


 
Our 5 ton electric hoists are used to carry out maintenance work on windmill machinery and for lifting spare parts. The hoist can be mounted to a jib crane within the nacelle of the turbine. Using the hoist for service allows maintenance staff to safely raise and lower turbine appliances for repair or replacement through the hub, as opposed to accessing the nacelle through the hatch or along the tower. 

Why choose our electric wire rope hoist?

• With the attributes of flexibility, power and compactness, 5 ton electric wire rope hoist is ideal for use in wind energy turbines.
• Compact dimensions and a standard lifting height of up to 90 metres are perfect prerequisites.
• High lifting speeds and a safety clutch as overload protection guarantee safe and efficient operation.
• The robust construction and the transmission tested for longevity assure reliable and economically efficient operation.
• Custom designs are also possible for special fields of operation.
