Lifting equipment for wind energy

Dongqi lifting equipment for material handling in wind energy

For wind energy industry, the lifting equipment used have to withstand the harsh installation environment. Wind power as a source of renewable energy is getting more attention world widely. The wind power generators is usually consisted of blades, nacelle, and the tower supporting them, with larger wind power generators built on towers up to 100 meters tall. The installation, maintenance of the wind power generators needs lifting equipment such as electric chain hoists to improve working efficiency.

How Dongqi lifting equipment helps wind power generators

The lifting equipment is installed on the yaw platform section of the nacelle and lift tools and components during maintenance. The lifting equipment such as electric hoists installed on the wind generators should be have a long working life around 20 years for the usually the wind generators having a service life of about 20 years. What’s more, since wind generators are located in harsh environments i.e. near the sea or on mountain tops, the lifting equipment and the electric hoists are required to be durable. In order to meet the challenge confronted, Dongqi can provide customized hoisting equipment with specially made load chains, brakes and buckets, etc.
