DC-Wind chain hoist: The go-to hoist for wind turbine maintenance

When it comes to maintaining wind turbines — whether onshore or offshore — the DC-Wind Demag chain hoist is trusted by teams around the world. Built to handle tough conditions, it safely lifts loads and tools weighing up to 1,500 kg to heights of up to 180 metres. Reliable, powerful, and ready for the job.

Safe. By Demag.

Fast lifting speeds mean less downtime and more productivity — keeping your turbines running at their best. The DC-Wind is easy to operate and comes packed with everything you'd expect from our trusted DC chain hoist range. A robust brake/coupling system and a corrosion-protected brake with IP55 enclosure help keep your team safe, even in the most demanding environments.
