Moventas is expanding its up-tower service globally after a successful track record in North America. Moventas can perform onsite inspections and repairs of high speed, low speed and intermediate assemblies to its own gearboxes as well as competitor models.

By utilising a mobile service unit and a small hydraulic crane, the Moventas up-tower repair eliminates the costs associated with mobilising large boom and secondary cranes normally required to bring the complete gearbox down from the nacelle. Shipping costs to and from the workshop are also eliminated, as well as the cost of the longer downtime of the turbine. Every Moventas up-tower repair also contains Moventas CMaS, a preventative condition management system. All up-tower repairs are carried out by Moventas field service personnel, all qualified and trained to work safely at heights. Moventas is currently building multiple self-contained mobile workshops specifically designed to perform this service at the wind site. Five mobile workshops will be strategically located in North America and an additional two units will be located in Germany and Spain before the end of the year.
