Rotor blades are an elementary component of a wind turbine. The trend is towards increasingly large blades with a length of well over 70 m. Such XXL elements can be moved safely and economically to the operation site with the new WingMAX from Faymonville, which is part of the TeleMAX flatbed semi-trailer series. Its special feature is the unique combination of several strengths.
The new rotor blade generation is part of the continuous development in wind turbines. They must be increasingly powerful and use the available installation spaces more and more efficiently. "For wind turbine blades in XXL format with a length of up to more than 70 m, Faymonville has now developed a vehicle that is not only long, but also strong and very easy to maneuver," says product manager Rainer Noe, describing the basic principle of the flatbed semi-trailer that is available as a 3 or 4-axle model.
