Redesign creates saving

Customer:
MHI Vestas

Type:
Wind

Location:
Denmark

With an optimized design on a well-known Tower Cross construction, we could save Mitsubishi Vestas for a significant amount. Tower Cross are used for both land and offshore for transport and storage of the lowest tower section on the wind turbine.  

The previous Tower Cross was complicated, expensive to produce and did not meet the requirements of 20 tons heavier tower bottoms.

Our solution

  1. Simplification of design
  2. Optimizing of principle of manufacture
  3. Implementation of sea fastening
  4. Certification by Bureau Veritas
  5. Load test
"We are excited about Flindt-Kristensen's approach to the project and the optimization, that has been achieved"
