Wind tower access has traditionally required the use of cranes, bucket trucks, or repelling teams. Helical Robotics engineers have created ways to streamline the work using remote-controlled, robotic devices that can scale a wind tower.
Their robotic platforms can be fitted with a wide range of devices from cameras and non-destructive testing equipment, to robotic arms and lifts. Recently, Helical Robotics unveiled their newest platform, the HR-1000LL. This newest system helps to expand their offering of robotic platforms, by allowing a single operator to lift hundreds of pounds up tower. The multiple designs from Helical Robotics cover payloads from light cameras to heavy industrial equipment. Using their new technology, technicians have a real-time view of tower maintenance operations from on board cameras, and offsite personal can view the progress live.
