The 4+7 self-steering trailer combination with a tower adapter, boasting a lifting capacity of 100 tonnes, is specifically tailored for the height-optimized transport of tower segments of varying lengths and diameters. Rainer Noe underscores positive customer responses, highlighting key features that enhance operational flexibility and safety:
"The free-turning device enables navigation through even the narrowest bends and obstacles. Equipped with two tower adapters featuring a vertical stroke of 1,800 millimeters, the trailer facilitates secure attachment to tower segments using either 3-point or 4-point clamping systems. The trailer itself incorporates hydraulic axle support and a fully redundant steering system, ensuring utmost stability and safety during complex transport maneuvers."
At the exhibition, the 3+5 VarioMAX low loader stands out with its hydraulically expandable vessel deck, adjusting from a base width of 3,000 millimeters to 4,700 millimeters. This technology allows for optimal width flexibility to accommodate tower segments at their required heights based on their diameters. Additionally, the extendable deck provides variability in load length. The vehicle's reliable 19.5" pendle axle technology further enhances driving performance.
Meanwhile, the MultiMAX 6-axle semi low loader, featuring a low 17.5" PA-X pendle axle, impresses with a minimal loading height of just 790 millimeters. Its double-telescopic loading platform extends up to 27,400 millimeters, offering versatile options for transporting various wind turbine components. The hydraulic gooseneck with switchable axle compensation facilitates front-end lifting/lowering, while steering adaptability adjusts seamlessly to different transport lengths, simplifying operational adjustments. Moreover, this exhibit represents only a fraction of the PA-X product family's capability, with configurations available for semi low loaders featuring up to 12 axles.
For operations in confined spaces and demanding payloads, such as offshore wind turbine components, the self-propelled 12-axle Cometto MSPE 48T excels. Its electronic multi-mode steering ensures maximum maneuverability and precision, boasting a steering angle of +/-135 degrees. Tubeless tires contribute to enhanced safety and increased transport speeds, while the SPMT's basic width of 2,430 millimeters facilitates container transport between sites.
With the latest SPMT generation, configurations include MSPE 48T (Standard & Heavy Duty) or MSPE EVO3 70T (Standard & Heavy Duty) vehicles in widths of either 2,430 or 3,000 millimeters, and with 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 modular axle lines. Each axle line supports payloads up to 70 tonnes, accompanied by a bending moment capability of up to 9,400 kN.m, setting benchmarks for performance and offering unparalleled advantages in heavy transport logistics.
Solutions for the construction of a wind turbine
The 4-axle MAX410 ballast trailer, part of the MAX Trailer brand, is specifically designed for transporting compact crane parts and heavy crane weights. Key features include a hydromechanical steering system that enhances maneuverability, alongside a robust design characterized by a torsion-resistant central frame capable of accommodating high point loads.
Rainer Noe contextualizes the significance of these promotional days and highlights the feedback received from wind power customers:
"Vehicles from the Faymonville Group lay the foundation for competitive and efficient operations. The diverse range of vehicle developments ensures not only smooth and reliable transport of large, often delicate wind turbine components but also contributes to lowering transport costs and reducing the ecological footprint. These are advanced transport solutions that prepare you today for the challenges of tomorrow."
