Movella applications for Wind Energy Logistics

Wind Energy Logistics

Innovative translifter-based concept is the safest and most cost efficient way to transport wind tower segments, nacelles and other heavy wind turbine components inside port areas. For windturbine blades the Movella blade transporter is the best choice.

How to use the translifter in wind turbine logistics

One translifter and three cassette+dolly pairs create a non-stop system where waiting times are eliminated.

What kind of equipment do you need?

For tower segment handling you will need a terminal tractor, a Movella translifter, three Movella cassettes and three Movella dollys. For nacelles you will need a terminal tractor, a Movella translifter and general cargo cassettes. For nacelles you can use the the same terminal tractor and Movella translifter as used for tower segment handling.

Why use Movella translifter in wind turbine transports

Improved safety compared to transporting with two reachstackers
Higher working efficiency because concept eliminates waiting times from drivers and crane operators
Much more economical, safer and easier to operate than with reachstackers or road trailers
Steering makes it is easy to drive in tighter areas
Same translifter can also transport nacelles and other heavy cargo on cassettes
Robust construction needs very little maintenance

Why use Movella blade transporter
