Generic transport solution blades

Rethink efficiency in blade transport

As wind turbine blades continue to increase in dimension and proportion, so do the challenges of transporting them from the factory to the final site.

R&D A/S has designed a generic transport solution for both onshore and offshore blades, which takes these challenges into account. The transport solution is unique due to its possibilities which allow it to suit all types of blades with only minor adjustments required.

The benefits of using the generic transport system include:

  • A generic system that can be adapted to fit all blade types
  • Design base approved by DNV GL
  • Minimized risk of damage during transport, handling, and onsite storage of blades
  • No reloading between factory and installation site
  • Second to none regarding time to market
