COOLING TOWER ACCESS SYSTEMS

COMPANYGESTA Gesellschaft fuer Stahlrohrgerueste mbH is a company in the field of scaffolding and lifting equipment and a specialist for all requirements of industrial scaffolding, access sys-tems and rope access technologies.

COOLING TOWER ACCESS SYSTEMSAccess systems are suspended scaffolds fitted with electric travel drives which enable maintenance work in big heights and depths, especially at curved surfaces and buildings like cooling towers, industrial chimneys and overhanging or curved walls.

GESTA uses a modular building access system which was developed and refined in-house during several decades, and which allows refurbishment work to be carried out safely and economically and for every purpose - regardless of whether the constructions are required for coating work, maintenance or repair work.

PROBLEM SOLVING COMPETENCEGases or steam attack the concrete shell of cooling towers over time, so that coating or repair work is required. The performance of such repair work to the inner and outer wall surfaces is carried out using cable access techniques that can be moved vertically and horizontally. These access systems are usually object-specific constructions.

With horizontal and vertical workplaces at any point of a tower-like structure, teams can work conveniently from an access system which includes the necessary payload for tools and materials. The access systems can be moved vertically and horizontally from the cage by means of the electric control system.

According to the current state of technology, GESTA-access systems can achieve a maximum height of 250 m. The speed of the working platform can be up to 18 m/min.

SOLUTIONS WITH QUALITYWe offer all services from expert advice, project planning, sale and rental, installation and commissioning as well as maintenance and technical inspection of the constructions.

We are available round the clock 24 hours a day - 365 days a year.
