XCMG’s XCA3000, the world’s largest tonnage wheeled crane, has just lately accomplished its first task in Liaoning Province, China,
On the Dashiqiao Xintai New Vitality 200 MW wind facility, the XCMG XCA3000 hoisted a 25-ton, 95-meter-long wind turbine blade to a top of 107 meters, which was then docked onto the wind turbine hub and put in.
Particularly designed for turbine hoisting, operational effectivity with the crane’s use greater than doubled, says the corporate. The XCMG XCA3000 wheeled crane has a 3000-ton lifting and 190-ton hoisting capability in addition to a 160 meter top, permitting it to put in wind generators as much as 10 MW. Per XCMG, a turbine nacelle, with a weight of 135 tons and 5 MW energy output, can now be put in inside a 30-minute operational window.
The crane’s means to move heavy parts akin to the principle arm and legs, weighing as much as 317 tons, coupled with its gradeability of 20%, enhances its heavy-load switch effectiveness, says XCMG.
