moving & lifting
Helicopters sometimes do not lift themselves. Verlinde hoists installed by Handel Sollevamenti allow maintenance to be carried out on the Elifriulia fleet in total safety.
e instinctively think of helicopters as being perfectly capable of lifting themselves even in the most difficult
services and flight school market, explains how hoists enable maintenance to take place safely. "we provide helicopter services for private

efficient and maintained according to the strictest international standards," explains claudio girardi, maintenance manager at elifriulia. "we recently turned to Handel sollevamenti to help us optimise handling procedures related to helicopter maintenance activities, in particular, the replacement of engines, which are located in the upper part of the aircraft below the blades. specifically, we were interested in creating a structure that would allow us not to be forced to dismantle the engines to carry out some of the more recurrent maintenance activities. federico alcido, area manager of Handel
sollevamenti, continues: "the guiding principle of our company has always been to create solutions with attention to every detail and tailored to the individual needs of each of our customers. in this specific case, after a careful inspection and analysis of the requirements in collaboration with elifriulia technicians, we opted for a gantry crane on steerable wheels equipped with eight motors: four dedicated to rotation/steering and another four dedicated to moving the structure from one hangar to another." Handel sollevamenti's objective was to design
a structure that could comply with the stringent dimensional limits imposed by the configuration of the elifriulia maintenance site, but at the same time ensure that operators could always work safely, thanks to the possibility of rotating on itself and positioning itself correctly for use
