Wind turbine components are large, heavy and often delicate. Handling them safely requires specialised equipment designed to reduce structural stress while ensuring precise control during lifting and transport. At TEC Container, we design certified wind turbine lifting equipment tailored to each component of the turbine — blades, nacelles and tower sections — to support safe and efficient logistics at ports, yards and manufacturing sites.
Engineered Solutions for Wind Energy Logistics
TEC Container supports the wind energy sector with a full range of lifting systems developed specifically for wind turbine components. Our beams and spreaders ensure maximum safety and alignment throughout the entire logistics chain.

Key Components of a Wind Turbine
A typical wind turbine consists of:
- Tower: supports the structure and elevates it to capture optimal wind speeds.
- Nacelle: contains the generator, gearbox and electronics that convert kinetic energy into electricity.
- Rotor: includes the blades and hub, responsible for capturing wind energy and transmitting it to the nacelle.
Each component has unique structural and handling requirements, which is why customised lifting equipment is essential.
TEC Container Wind Turbine Lifting Equipment
1. Blade Lifting Beam for Reach Stackers (BA-249V)
The BA-249V is designed to handle wind turbine blades using reach stackers. It distributes the load evenly across multiple support points and clamps securely at the root and tip.
- Prevents blade bending and twisting
- Ensures alignment during transport
- Optimised for long, delicate structures
2. Blade Spreader for Harbour Cranes (BA-350E)
The BA-350E is used with mobile harbour cranes to lift blades via two lifting points: at the root and along the midsection. This design keeps the blade stable throughout the lift.
- Even load distribution
- Prevents swinging and deflection
- Suitable for port environments
3. Nacelle Lifting Beam (BA-175G)
For handling heavy nacelles, the BA-175G uses a single central lifting point and two slings positioned to evenly distribute the load.
- Maintains structural balance
- Reduces stress and tilting
- Ideal for compact nacelle transportç
4. Tower Section Beam for Cranes (BA-190)
The BA-190 lifting beam connects to two crane hooks and lifts cylindrical tower segments while keeping them balanced and stable.
- Prevents excessive flexing
- Maintains alignment
- Designed for high vertical loads
5. Double Reach Stacker Beam for Towers (BA-110)
The BA-110 beam enables synchronised handling of tower sections using two reach stackers. Each stacker lifts one end to evenly distribute weight.
- Reduces stress on tower structure
- Ensures accurate positioning
- Optimised for horizontal transport
