Zoomlion ZCC1800H crawler crane sets a world record for the highest altitude wind turbine hoisting

 

It is understood that the Zhegu decentralized wind power project in Cuomei County, Xizang is the highest altitude wind farm under construction in the world at present, with an average altitude of more than 5000 meters. The wind farm is currently constructing two experimental wind turbines, with bases installed at an altitude of nearly 5100 meters.

 

Industry insiders introduce that the air in ultra-high altitude areas is thin and the temperature is low, which seriously affects the efficiency of personnel and equipment construction; Compared to other regions, ultra-high altitude construction also puts higher requirements on the stability and safety of equipment. In addition, lifting equipment also needs to have stronger power to cope with “high-altitude reactions”.

 

Introduction to the Project Manager of Zhonglian Heavy Industry Engineering Crane Branch: At present, the construction of wind farms at such high altitudes both domestically and internationally is in the stage of “crossing the river by feeling the stones”, lacking case references. Before the project starts, the construction client comprehensively considers various factors such as the project environment, wind load during lifting, dynamic load, and efficiency reduction of high-altitude machinery and equipment, and repeatedly selects the lifting products. After multiple rounds of evaluation, the Zoomlion Heavy Industry Crawler Crane ZCC1800H was finally selected for this project due to its excellent performance “The main lifting equipment.”

 

It is reported that the power system, hydraulic system, and control system of Zoomlion ZCC1800H have high reliability configurations in terms of stability and safety; The configuration of the product’s engine cold start device and key component dust protection device also makes the product more suitable for lifting in wind power environments.

 

It is understood that the Zoomlion Crawler Crane used for this lifting was purchased by the customer in 2014 and has been in service for nearly 7 years. During this period, it has always been very reliable, with excellent quality and superior performance highly praised by the customer. Although the product is a veteran, its lifting style has not diminished at all. In this wind power lifting construction, the ZCC1800H crawler crane continues to shoulder the heavy responsibility of precision, stability, and reliability, effectively ensuring the progress of the project, and once again demonstrating the extraordinary strength of a “great power heavy vessel” under severe working conditions.

 

“The success of this wind turbine hoisting project is another witness to the hardcore strength of Zoomlion Crane. In the future, Zoomlion will continue to promote product research and development innovation, overcome difficulties, shoulder heavy responsibilities, and contribute to the construction of new energy projects in China,” said the relevant person in charge of Zoomlion Crane Engineering Branch.
