The replacement of a wind turbine gearbox in the Gebhardshain wind farm in the Westerwald region is an outstanding example of the use of our traction assistance vehicles.

The challenge:

The gearbox of one of the seven wind turbines, which have been reliably generating energy for around two decades, needed replacing. This may sound like a routine task at first glance, but in the context of a wind farm, it becomes clear that it is a complex project. The logistics alone pose a major challenge, particularly due to the steep access roads to the wind farm and the low-lying location of the turbine to be repaired.

The solution:

To successfully complete this project, our clients required a powerful towing vehicle capable of transporting all the necessary crane components and the transmission. Our MAN KAT 8x8 was deployed here and proved to be a reliable partner. Thanks to its robustness and power of approximately 500 hp, it was able to master the steep terrain and provide towing support for all transport operations.
