Intelligent Alignment system

Achieve fully human-free installation with our Intelligent Alignment System.

The system typically includes two Intelligent Guide Pins, three Intelligent Alignment Guides, and a camera system. For larger loads, additional pins or guides can be added to ensure complete precision.

The Intelligent Alignment System enables safe and precise flange alignment without any manual intervention.

With the camera system, operators can monitor bolt-hole alignment from a distance, while the electric, remote-controlled Intelligent Alignment Guides provide exceptional precision by continuously adjusting torque. Finally, the guide pins can be deployed through the bolt holes using remote control, completing the installation efficiently and safely.

The guide system can be used for:

  • Installation of wind turbine towers
  • Installation of wind turbine nacelles
  • Installation of TPs
  • Installation of OSP TPs
  • Installation of all flange to flange connections.

Intelligent Guide Pins

Adjustable pins with remote control
Pins can be extended or retracted as needed, preventing bending or breakage.

Camera-assisted guidance
Visual feedback ensures correct positioning, even if holes are slightly misaligned.

Safe and human-free operation
No need for personnel inside the tower – pins are inserted remotely.

Intelligent Alignment Guides

Human-free installation
The Intelligent Alignment Guides are fully remote-controlled, enabling precise, human-free installation without any manual intervention.

Precisely guides components during lifting
By continuously adjusting motor torque, we ensure precise control of how components are guided and accurately pressed into position.

Softens contact for a smooth landing
The software ensures smooth and controlled movement when lowering the component, preventing hard impacts or sudden shifts.

Ensures perfect final alignment
As the flanges come together, the system increases torque to actively push them into the correct position for precise alignment.

Alignment guides

The Alignment Guides ensure controlled installation of TPs and WTG towers with reduced weight for easier handling.

Key benefits:

  • Adjustable spring force from 1 to 3 tonnes.
  • Overload safety release provided by a weak link bolt.
  • Easy handling and installation with integrated lifting point
  • Monopile protection with polymer pads.
  • Locked in flange hole with eccentric pin.​
  • External eccentric pin can be added for extra safety.

Flange Vision System

Key features

The Flange Vision System is designed to provide a quick-to-set-up and highly reliable monitoring solution. It offers 360-degree visual coverage of the flange, enabling precise and accurate alignment.

Can be used for:

  • Installation of wind turbine towers
  • Installation of wind turbine nacelles
  • Installation of TPs
  • Installation of OSP TPs
  • Installation of all flange to flange connections

The FlangeVision-System is often used in conjunction with HARCO’s Rotational Guide System, which physically aligns flanges using guide pins and dampening mechanisms.

Together, they form a comprehensive solution for precise, safe, and efficient flange alignment in both onshore and offshore environments

Yoke Vision System

Our YokeVision System is engineered for seamless integration with your preferred yoke or lifting equipment, providing a flexible and reliable visual monitoring solution for heavy lifting operations.

The system delivers precise real-time visuals and stable connectivity, giving operators full situational awareness throughout the lift. This enhances safety, improves operational performance, and supports precise control during complex lifting operations.

Built for demanding environments, YokeVision ensures robust performance and dependable operation. It can be powered either by battery or through a hardwired connection, offering flexibility to match different project requirements.

Bolt Gripper

Our bolt gripper is designed for efficient handling of bolts of all sizes. It reduces manual handling and features a secure locking mechanism for enhanced safety.

The single bolt gripper enables precise installation in challenging positions.

For increased efficiency, we offer 2-, 4-, and 8-bolt grippers, allowing multiple bolts to be handled and installed simultaneously.

Each bolt gripper can be customized to match specific bolt sizes and center-to-center distances, ensuring a perfect fit for every setup.
