Offshore Build-Out by 2030: Handling Solutions for Wind Component Production
The offshore build-out is one of the largest industrial tasks of the coming years. By 2030, considerable capacity is to come online, and the components for it are getting bigger and heavier. For wind component production this means: the handling must grow with it. Handling solutions for offshore components are a central building block here. Handling solutions for offshore wind components are the key here, because the components get bigger and heavier with every turbine genera

Wind Power Boom: What the Growing Build-Out Means for Component Manufacturing
The addition of wind turbines is picking up noticeably, and with it the demand for components. Hubs, generators, flanges and tower segments have to be manufactured in higher numbers. For component manufacturing, the wind power boom means above all one thing: produce faster, without compromising on ergonomics and quality. For wind power component manufacturing, the boom means above all one thing: produce faster, without compromising on ergonomics and quality. Manufacturing of

Capacity Bottlenecks in the Wind Industry: How Handling Technology Speeds Up Manufacturing
The wind industry is growing, yet manufacturing can barely keep up with the pace. Hubs, generators, flanges and tower segments are heavy and bulky, and the handling slows the lines. Handling technology for the wind industry starts exactly here and speeds up production without requiring more personnel. Handling technology for the wind industry starts exactly at this bottleneck and makes manufacturing faster without requiring more personnel. Manual manufacturing in the wind ind

Defense Industry Series Production: Why It Relies on Reproducible Manufacturing Lines
In the defense industry, the focus is shifting from single-unit and small-batch production toward reproducible series production. What begins as a prototype must go into volume without quality or occupational safety suffering. Handling technology is the key to managing the transition from prototype to series cleanly. In defense-industry series production, reproducibility is the decisive factor, because only then do quality and tolerances stay constant across rising unit numbe
