Blade production goes with the flow

RoundTracks enable precise positioning without posing a barrier for forklift trucks, unlike standard rails and chain conveyors. Enercon constructed mobile production platforms that transport two rotor blade halves each.

Strothmann carried out the measurements, precise adjustment, and installation of the 2km+ rail system, and supplied the wheel sets which are also components of the RoundTrack trolleys designed by the automation company. Enercon implemented the drive solution as well as hydraulic crossover mechanisms that enable the platforms to circulate through the factory.
