The Temporary Suspended Platform Type VI is the first product of its kind in the world.
It allows repair technicians to gain easy and cost effective access to the world’s largest turbine blades without using a crane.
It also allows them to quickly and safely repair problems to the blade before the damage can propagate.
This will save the wind farm owner hundreds of thousands of dollars in crane mobilization costs, turbine downtime, and large-scale remediation repairs by providing an immediate up-tower repair option whenever a problem may occur.
The extensive investment and development of the Type VI Platform will be especially valuable in 2012 with the continued global development of offshore wind parks.
Accessing the turbines and repairing the blades is one of the most costly and difficult challenges facing the offshore wind farm market.
The Asmus Type VI will help reduce repair and turbine downtime costs by over 50% for blade maintenance.
Asmus’ continued dedication to research and development has resulted in the largest portfolio of custom suspended platforms in the world.
Asmus Temporary Suspended Platforms can be used to repair blades on wind turbines ranging from the smallest utility scale models up - to 6 MW and everything in between.
As a leading global platform supplier for the wind energy industry, Asmus is positioned to continually support the growth of the wind energy industry for the foreseeable future.
The cooperation Asmus has experienced and demonstrated with leading turbine manufacturers, energy companies, local and national government agencies, and all companies along the supply chain is an essential factor in the success of the largest renewable energy industry in the world.
