Abstract

The lifting tool has been developed as per the BS EN13155-lifting accessories, non-fixed load lifting attachments, so as per these standards, counterbalance c-crane will develop and also customize mounting arrangement to be used for lifting the wind turbine components during the integration of the wind turbine. So these tools will be using in the production plant of the wind turbine components. Depending upon the depth of assembly, the fork arm length will decide. The lifting tool or attachment design will depend upon the fork arm geometry. Mounting tools are assembled with different parts, so these parts are connected by different joint connections like fasteners, welded joints, etc. The joints design will be followed by DIN EN 1993.1.8.2005-1, as per these standard instructions, joints to be designed.
