Turner Gears

The wind energy industry is crucial for generating clean energy. However, installing wind turbine blades can be a complex and challenging process, since the weight of the rotor is unbalanced. AS SCAN's innovative turner gear, mounted on the wind turbine gear, are designed to address these challenges and ensure precision, safety, and efficiency during wind turbine blade installation.

Efficient and Precise Assembly with Turner Gear Equipment

These specialized turner equipment are built to facilitate the controlled rotation of the rotor during the blade mounting process. This makes AS SCAN' the perfect choice for wind turbine blade installers, ultimately contributing to successful and efficient wind energy projects.
