The transport tasks linked to the construction of new wind turbines are extremely demanding. Trailer combinations with tower adapters are the ideal technology for reaching wind farms with long, heavy and bulky tower segments, which are often located in difficult terrain.
Spedition Gutmann has acquired a trio of these impressive vehicles. The experts are particularly impressed by the reduced tare weight for a correspondingly higher payload and the remarkable steering behaviour of the FlexMAX.
Even on winding motorway sections and tricky access passages, the trailer follows as if it were being pulled by a string. The two installed tower adapters enable connection to the tower segments in 3-point or 4-point connection.
The components are designed for internal flange diameters of 2,650 to 5,400 millimetres. The steering system has four steering cylinders for the front steering and four for the rear steering.
Hydraulic and mechanical safety systems as well as the hydraulic support ensure maximum operational safety.
We wish the Gutmann team all the best with these new vehicles.
