Tech makes life a breeze for wind turbine firm

Platform technology developed by LOBO Systems is helping improve efficiency at a wind turbine company.

The firm has supplied its LOBO Advanced Platform System to Enerpac, which needed a solution for its orbital milling process – which is work carried out at height.

The adjustable system allows operators to safely access important parts of the machine when installing or producing wind turbine rotor blades.

And due to its modular design and fully adjustable components, the LOBO system can be quickly assembled into any shape or size without the need for any tools.

In a statement, Enerpac said: “We selected LOBO over a costly fabricated system that was never quite right and had to be fitted to suit on-site.

“LOBO was easy to assemble and adjust and it was far less expensive. Ease of transportation was a major factor in choosing LOBO as the whole milling system is now far more portable.

“The training was very extensive and easy to understand, which resulted in a much quicker and easy to adjust install on the rig.”
