Technical Summary

• The robot is designed to follow the contour of any continuous closed surface
– Of particular interest is the complex contour of a wind turbine airfoil and the cylindrical contour of wind towers
• This includes the circular root near the center of the wind turbine as well as the transition from cylinder to airfoil
– Control feedback from each chassis segment allows for precise position control and automation of movement
over entire surface
• Versatility

Wind Tower Heavy Lifting

Wind Turbine Airfoil Servicing

A revolutionary mobile platform to serve the wind industry’s needs

Any payload may be attached to the robot to service the airfoil as there is complete surface coverage

Control system can allow for full autonomous operation to ensure consistent results
