HMPE roundslings and use of these slings have been developed rapidly in the previous years. As these slings are light weighted in relation to the capacity they are often being used in the Offshore Windmill Industry. Use and calculation of these slings require a different approach & specific guidelines in which we can support and consult at all times.
On our side www.vlierodam.nl you can find our user manual, in case of any questions we look forward hearing from you!
In the previous 15 years we have put many efforts in gaining knowledge in relation to the scope and requirements of the Offshore Windmill Industry. As this industry is still evolving and capacities are increasing we will maintain educating & developing ourselves in relation to related products and Standards.
HMPE roundslings is one of these products. Suitability of these slings are being calculated based on specific guidelines and related Safety Factors. Also on length tolerances (single and matching sets) we can guarantee the most accurate production.
Production process and finalised product has been reviewed and guided by DNV, which guarantees you of a high standard production traceable from fibre to end product. DNV approval can be provided upon request.
We will be pleased to assist and consult you in this matter during any stage of your projects. We consider ourselves not only as a manufacturer / supplier but as a whole service covering partner in relation to these products and industry.
