PRODUCTION FACILITY COMPRISING A TRANSPORT SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING ELONGATED PRODUCTS, IN PARTICULAR WIND TURBINE BLADES, WITH ELONGATED MOULD ASSEMBLIES

摘要

The present invention relates to a production facility (100, 200, 300, 400, 500) for forming elongated products, in particular wind turbine blades, wherein elongated mould assemblies (110a, 110b, 210a, 210b, 310a, 310b, 410a, 410b, 510a, 510b) may be accessed on the basis of an appropriate transport system (150, 250, 350, 450, 550) comprising at least one support member (251a-h, 151, 251, 351, 451, 551) laterally positioned between the elongated mould assemblies. The support member (251a-h, 151, 251, 351, 451, 551) is positioned so as to enable a rotational movement of an arm (121a, 121b, 221a) or is configured to change position or comprises a rotatable carrier element (259). For example, an elongated support member (151, 251, 351, 451, 551) may be positioned in a non-interference position, in which one or both mould assemblies can be moved into a position so as to form a composite mould assembly.
