Complete lifting system using the PK 40002 M nacelle crane
The PK 40002 M nacelle crane will be presented at the booth. With an outreach of up to 25 meters and a lifting moment of 31 mt, the knuckle-boom crane has proven itself in use on wind turbines of a variety of offshore wind farms such as Thornton Bank I, II & III, Nordsee Ost, Ormonde and Alpha Ventus. Thanks to the compact design, there is space for the PK 40002 M in virtually any nacelle. Typically combined with a PSM 400 platform crane, it delivers the perfect combination of supply ship, platform and nacelle. Supply and maintenance work can be carried out safely and quickly thus shortening idle time of the wind turbines.
PALFINGER France added as new dealer for PALFINGER WIND
Contracts were recently awarded in France for five new wind farms off the coast of Normandy and Brittany. Thomas Nitsch, Head of PALFINGER Wind Cranes, says, “Our expansion of PALFINGER WIND’s dealer network in France is the consistent implementation of our strategy of being present with competent contacts wherever there are offshore wind farms. The next steps are already being planned for Spain and China.” PALFINGER France, with its headquarters in Etoile/Rhône in the southeast of France, will be on site locally in future for prospective customers and customers of PALFINGER WIND.
