RELIABLE ENERGY PRODUCTION

Reliable energy production is essential to the successful operation of all wind farms. Ensuring that the turbines’ availability is maximized is, therefore, paramount. At Windbloss, we guarantee experienced technicians trained to the highest standards to help our clients maintain a continuous and reliable service over a variety of turbine models.

Proven Track Record

Windbloss Engineering Limited has a proven track record in delivering safe and experienced technician solutions for wind industry clients all over Europe. Our wide range of competences provides them with a one stop shop for wind energy work.

Our technicians are trained and experienced in scheduled annual and intermediate servicing along with 500hr and end of warranty maintenance.

We mobilise technicians to provide scheduled and reactive maintenance services. Our technicians are specifically trained for each project and have varied experience with equipment used in this field.

 

Qualified inspectors

Inspections carried out in accordance with:

 

  • Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 – LOLER
  • Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 – PUWER
  • Work at Height Regulations 2005
  • Pressure System Safety Regulations 2000
  • British Standard and European Norm Standards
  • Lifting Equipment Engineers Association Training
  • Clients individual requirements

 

This takes the responsibility away from your company and staff and covering your liability under HSE Regulations.

We utilise our newly designed statutory inspection vehicle which is loaded with spare parts, a testing unit for proof loading up to 3.5tonne and work bench for maintenance of hoist components. The vehicle is 4-wheel drive and can be used to carry out maintenance of lift components without the need to return them to a manufacturer or workshop, in turn saving many hours of lift downtime.

 

For large-scale wind turbine assets and auxiliary equipment, unaddressed minor problems can quickly escalate into costly stoppages, lost revenue, and expensive repairs, but with the help of our fully loaded vehicles, defects can also be remedied immediately due to the extensive number of spares we can carry in the vehicle. This saves on return journeys and further downtime.
