Vestas Wind Turbine Blade transportation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2017
- This is how you do a right-hand turn with a 57,5 metre-long wind turbine blade!
The blade is one of 198 x V117 blades being transported from Ashaig Airfield to Stronelairg wind farm in Scotland.
Extensive studies and tests had been performed before the first delivery by our transport supplier McFaydens Transport.
The trailer suspension and hydraulic neck were heightened to negotiate the bridge parapet for the safe 90 degrees right turn. In this way, less road modification works were carried out, resulting in less cost and zero trees cut down.

amazing. That driver is getting PAID.
They do pay us well but it is definitely a fun job.
@unknown anonymous ??
@@dudals1001 I was hauling them in Texas contracted to Vestas.
I’ve escorted trucks many times,
I was also part of Installation and maintenance for four unforgettable years!
thank you for your labour to supply us with sustainable energy and help stop global heating. bless you
Could you imagine being late to work and being stuck behind this 😂
I may be wrong, but I believe they close all road ways where the truck has to travel through.
Or school
no one will believe you😂
@@datboishrek6662 not here, they drive late at night when the roads are mostly empty, been stuck waiting for one to turn.. Fun to watch lol
@@AnythingGasoline oh shit...thanks for the info. 😂😂
This is one blade of the three wind turbine blades, what a big piece.

I saw 4 of these guys by the Love’s outside Sonora. I was so confused and amazed. I’m from WNY, and you never see that.
They make blades like that near where I live and they are huge! So big that the people working on them look like Lego men.
I live in Southeast Texas and see those getting transported all the time
Nice work
Sweet, look how far the trailer wheels kick out, that's a lot of rear steer. Awesome video and thanks for not chopping it up and ruining the best parts!
Did you spot that the first set of wheels on the back were raised, I wonder why?
@@bridgendesar
I'm not a lorry driver but used to work at a place that had a lot around and I believe it's simply that if they need to carry a lot of wieght they put them down, if they are carrying a lighter load they lift them so it's less road friction and less pointless wear and tear on tires and wheels etc that don't needed to be used. You see it on normal lorries when they are empty etc.
excelente!! genios de la logística!!!
Is this the Fort William turn off heading from Kyle?
Looks like it is, I have a couple of videos of the blades heading through Kyle on my channel whilst sat in the traffic, it's fascinating to see them negotiate the turns though.
I've seen these on train cars;
twice now; tracks are only about 50 meters fron my house It's very exciting to think of all the energy they will soon provide! Build back better!
I never knew those blades were that damn big. Wowzers! 😮
Hi
😢😮😅😊
Very nice driving 👍👍
Does the driver control the rear wheels from the cab? ...other setups I've seen have a rear control panel run by an operator at the back.
Now, if I found myself on the highway next to one of these...i might shit my pants.
So friggin COOL!
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
still amazing to watch
WoOoW high Skill Driver Truck Very Big Blade 👍👍
Gonna keep looking for train flatcar video
Yes the driver is proactive because that trailer have moving tyres in different directions otherwise he cannot enter in that narrow intersection and transporting the blades are difficult and diameter most is huge like 130 inches and to be 4 pieces the column (Wind Turbine Tower).
Perfection
GREAT TO SEE
Very cool that driver knows what his doing
So how do they steer the rear wheels? Does the driver do that? Or is the guy behind it doing something?
The guy behind (Steerman)does the steering on the trailer axles. I haul these in Texas for the same company but this is a short one. We are hauling 67 and 72 meter blades here.
@@SouthTexasGhostRider I think in this particular case the driver does the steering, but he takes feedback from the man behind. Although the blades in Texas may be longer I suspect the roads are straighter. In order to get this project completed several km of road had to be constructed at a cost of over £3 million. The trailers are adjustable length, and in this case if you watch the clearance over the bridge railings also had to be taken into account, so I think the support for the blade was raised. The police had to be notified in advance, and roads might also have been closed.
@@Dave-nm8uk Agreed. That blade looks much shorter than what we haul. I was usually pulling 67 meter to 72 meter blades.
@@SouthTexasGhostRider How is the rear steering controlled? Is it electric motors that rotate the steering?
@@gloverelaxis It's a hydraulic steering system run by a 22hp Pony motor.
E eu pensando que o motorista fosse passar umas horas aí tentando kkkkkk muito bom esse vídeo.
Se não fosse esse vídeo, jamais saberia da existência desses caminhões evoluidos. Brasil atrasado é pouco.
Excelente.
Super drive
It's all of us coming from Twitter and losing almost 3 minutes of our lives to watch this 🤦🏽♀️
lmfao yea
WORTH IT 🤣
Hello, I'm thinking of installing a wind generator from Your company. I live in Ukraine, I would like to know how and for what term it is possible to do?
Has anybody noticed fixture to hold this huge blade? Good design
I was checking that out myself. Really neat.
Came here to see how it's *supposed* to be done after seeing that video from Texas of a blade on a semi getting hit by a train.
(If you've not seen it yet, the driver seemingly got stuck on the tracks while trying to make a tight turn and cross the tracks simultaneously. I'd wager that the spotter is now looking for a new employer...)
The best șofer
Hey there, awesome video. Can I use it in my compilation? I'll provide full credits to you.
Love to hear back from you. Thank you...
Thật khó tin! Tài xế quá giỏi, quá xuất sắc
Hello. Can I get the address of a company that specializes in this kind of clean energy.. Thanks
How much fuel is it needed to transport the turbine on this suspension trailer
Dont know. You want to carry the next one?
Hard to say, but given the money they pay for them, it’s not a concern to the driver. He’s more than covering that expense, I promise you.
Nowhere near the amount the turbine is most likely displace in co2 per ton.
👏👏👏
we haul 80 meter blades in the USA, thats a baby blade there.
Impresionante.un10.porque no se puede poner más.enhoabuena a todos.
What is this????🤔
I saw these blades on Mumbai highway
Just imagining this blade slaughtering birds flying by
Looking forward to Tesla Semi and other BEVs replacing diesels...
এইগুলা এডিট করা যায়। আমি বিশ্বাস করতে পারলাম না, যে ড্রাইভার ভাই এতো বড় ব্লেড এই রোড় দিয়ে নিয়ে গেছে।
You can choose for one of the above gifts
Change it to metres might help....... Nice job.
Cánh quạt dài quá
Never seen an operation like this moving super giant windmill blades. I used to think they were small. That is what this video ruclips.net/video/w6qpXVoxNS4/видео.html shows.

Good thing that truck doesn't run on fossil fuel 🤣😂🤣

Really enjoyed your video. Let's check Avasva plans also

How to transport China
Vestas currently has both Blade and Turbine manufactoring in China, making transport to the Chinese market easier.

Man wtf
And that's "environmentally friendly"!
Balloaks it’s not. When the blades go bad. Which they will. They are dumped in a landfill. The material is basically fiber glass
Stargazer-auto What? Who told you they go to landfill?? They are used to manufacture cement!!!
Wow have highways wider, still not impressed by what is in this
