Low Maintenance

Compact SizeIn order to subsist, all Countries need stable and adequate sources of energy. This condition poses environmental needs on a global scale:• The worldwide demand for energy is

growing faster than the supply.• Fossil fuels are a limited resource, which

makes their price very unpredictable and volatile.

• The CO2 emission levels often reach levels above those acceptable.

Wind-generated electricity.Worldwide energy use continues to rise, so it is imperative for this evolution to cause the least possible damage to our environment.An unlimited source of energy that is relatively easy to exploit and transform, today this technology already supplies a signifi cant part of the energy we use, and the windmill farms that have been set up in adequate locations are now able to compete with conventional power plants.

VERLINDE offers innovative solutionsfor lifting and handling operations that involve the use of windmill hubs.As a result of the vast experience we have acquired by manufacturing a wide range of hoists and winches that are currently being used throughout the whole world, this product range has implemented the most up-to-date

technology available in lifting equipment.

An ergonomic solution.We study the confi guration

of your windmill hubs in great detail in order to achieve

a user-friendly work environment. We implement the layout, adaptation to the space available, accessibility, etc. in order to facilitate all service and inspection interventions. In this way VERLINDE offers its customers lifting equipment systems that are perfectly adapted to the windmill crib and its components (compact size, low weight, detachable parts, low maintenance).

A very safe control system.This product line includes a relatively large number of safety devices to monitor lifting operations. This product range also complies with the strictest health and safety regulations that apply to maintenance and repair operations.As a result, we offer optimum safety, increased productivity and substantially lower operating costs.
