TRANSPORT, HANDLING & INSTALLATION

Services will play an increasingly important role in the profitability of Wind Turbine manufacturers.

Your ability to increase margins through cost reduction of installation and maintenance and add value through proactive monitoring and optimisation will be key to your success. All of these aspects have to be designed into the product and be an integral element of product lifecycle management.

TRANSPORT & LOGISTICS

The installation and commissioning of a Wind Turbine requires meticulous planning with any aspect overlooked potentially causing a costly delay. Modelling the process against different scenarios and conditions is essential to ensure the right transportation is used, the appropriate heavy plant is commissioned, and all components are in the right place at the right time.

INSTALLATION MANAGEMENT

The inherently remote and often hostile location of wind turbines poses significant risk to installation. Being able to simulate environments and use Augmented Reality to test procedures and train engineers safely is paramount to minimise risk and ensure smooth installation. Modelling every eventuality is key in order to have effective contingency plans in place.

CONTENT MANAGEMENT

Content is critical to support assembly, commissioning and after-sale service. Ensuring you have a content strategy in place from the point of design, is essential. This strategy should focus on delivering the information people need in relevant formats that are easy to consume such as manuals, videos and virtual reality simulations.
