Our offerings for this sector include Air Film Movers, wheeled Movers, and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), all tailored to their intended applications. In the transformer and wind energy industries, Air Film Movers are predominantly used, although customized wheeled forklifts are also installed in certain cases. For the nuclear and hydrogen industries, we conduct feasibility studies and provide AGVs to ensure efficient and safe handling processes. In the oil and offshore industries, Solving trolleys are primarily supplied for use on oil platforms, while Air Film Movers are utilized for managing large and heavy components at onshore production facilities. **Select industry sector to read more:** Transformers Wind Power Cables Nuclear Oil (offshore) Hydrogen ## **Transformers** **Our complete set of material handling systems for transformer production** Solving provides a variety of transporters for handling transformers, windings, cores, and other parts efficiently and safely throughout production. **Air Film Movers** are particularly well-suited for moving transformers weighing several hundred tonnes efficiently and smoothly through production areas, test facilities, and into vacuum ovens. Air Film Movers provide the necessary freedom and flexibility to transport complete transformers weighing 500 tonnes or more. With electric drives and integrated batteries, these Movers can operate independently of hoses and cables when unloaded, requiring connection only when moving a loaded steel pallet. **Wheeled Movers** ensure robust and flexible material handling across demanding production environments, such as long transport distances, narrow factory layouts, and applications requiring defined load support and remote-controlled movement. For example, telescopic wheeled Movers are installed to ensure smooth handling of transformer bushings. **Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV)** ensure a reliable and continuous supply of steel coils, steel sheet stacks, and other materials throughout the manufacturing process. ## 3 reasons why ### 1 **State-of-the-Art control systems** Our latest control system technology enables optimal energy consumption, improving efficiency and performance. ### 2 **High-capacity, compact Mover** The low lifting height of the air bearings, combined with the compact design of the Air Film Mover, ensures that the overall height of the handling equipment remains very low. ### 3 **No floor wear** Air bearings distribute the load over a large surface area, resulting in very low point loads. There is no friction and, consequently, no floor wear, because the Movers float on a film of air. ## **Wind power** Solving provides a wide range of handling equipment for the wind power sector. Customized Solving Air Film Movers are used in the production of large and heavy wind turbines, while Automated Guided Vehicles, AGVs, are implemented in assembly lines for wind power gearboxes and components. We tailor our solutions to meet specific customer requirements, delivering efficient handling systems for heavy and bulky loads. ## 3 reasons why ### 1 **State-of-the-Art control systems / Air Film Movers** Energy consumption can be optimized with our latest control system technology. ### 2 **High capacity, compact Mover** The low lifting height of the air bearings in combination with a low-built Air Film Mover means that the total height of the handling equipment is very low. ### 3 **Customized handling equipment** The handling systems are customized to suit each customer’s requirements specifically ## Book a consultation Book a consultation with us today and we will contact you to set up the meeting. [Book Now!](https://www.solving.com/book-a-consultation/) ## **Cables** Various types of Solving Air Film Movers are installed to handle cables, cable drums or umbilicals for heavy electrical and offshore applications. With capacities of up to 1000 tonnes or more they allow both exact positioning and safe handling. ## **Nuclear** Electricity produced at nuclear power plants generates radioactive nuclear waste, and the waste must be taken care of in a way that does not harm the environment. Solving AGVs are used in this respect to transport disposal canisters safely in disposal facilities.

Solving air film Movers and modular air bearing systems (MLS) are used for flexible handling of modules, cables, subsea pumps, and other heavy and bulky loads – either onboard oil platforms and gas rigs or in production facilities on land. Solving pneumatic trolleys are used mainly for exchanging large and heavy components during maintenance on oil and gas platforms. They are specifically designed and approved for EX environments according to ATEX in zones 1 and 2, and if required certified to meet the safety requirements set by the offshore industry. Solving battery-powered trolleys are certified for ATEX in zone II for category 3G, IIBT3. ## **Hydrogen sector** Within the hydrogen sector separation and purification equipment are produced for the process and emerging fuels sectors supporting global decarbonization goals. Solving automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are installed to handle such separators along an assembly line. ## Book a consultation Book a consultation with us today and we will contact you to set up the meeting.
