Molino Nabrawind

Blade Touchless System

Patented craneales
blade installation and uninstallation system.

BladeRunner is a blade’s maintenance and installation system. It is based on the installation of small pieces of equipment on the hub of the wind turbine with which the blade is directly manipulated and ascends and descends in a vertical position.

The system is connected directly to the blade root inserts or T-Bolts, which avoids applying force on its aerodynamic surface, thus eliminating the risk of cracks appearing in the handling area.

70% savings in blade exchange vs. standard cranes.

Drastic cost reduction

BladeRunner is
a craneless blade maintenance and installation system

This is done with the installation of small pieces of lifting equipment on the hub with which the blade is directly manipulated and ascends and descends in a vertical position. The system is connected directly to the blade root inserts or T-Bolts, which avoids applying force on its aerodynamic surface, thus eliminating the risk of damaging the blade shells in the manipulation.
