Successful combinations never change. The Astra and Allison transmissions were again selected by the Nordic natural gas pipeline as a strategic infrastructure project and added to the construction of major gas pipelines in Europe. The estimated cost of the Nordic natural gas pipeline project is 1 billion euros, which is crucial to the energy supply of all European countries. The Nordic natural gas pipeline is one of the two pipelines that transports the natural gas provided by Gazprom directly to Europe through the North Stream. Another natural gas pipeline is located on the bottom of the Baltic Sea, bypassing Ukraine. After arriving in northwestern Germany, natural gas from Siberia reached Belgium, the Netherlands, France and the United Kingdom via intertwined pipelines. The 440-kilometre-wide Nordic natural gas pipeline started in the northern stream of the Lubimin Coast area near Greifswald in Germany, passed through Schweirn and Hamburg to reach the city of Leiden in Lower Saxony, passing through towns until North Sea stockpiles of natural gas have also been used. This pipeline will transport more than 20 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year, equivalent to one-fifth of Germany's energy demand. BonattiSpa has won contracts for the construction of nearly four billion euros for the four main parts of the project. Bonatti is a member of the International Gas Pipeline Builders Association and a leading European company in the oil and gas industry. He has created thousands of kilometers (about 56'') of gas pipelines under extreme environmental, logistical and remote conditions around the world. Good record. Adhering to the absolute adherence to the top quality and completion date when building the Opal gas pipeline, this Italian company is a candidate for the Nordic gas pipeline project. The Nordic natural gas pipeline began construction in April 2011, was completed in August 2012, and was delivered on schedule in November of the same year. During this period, Astra and Allison played an important role in ensuring the smooth progress of various tasks. Bonatti's team manager Giuliano Gelmi confirmed: "High-quality and reliable vehicles are critical to supporting us in completing highly professional and huge projects. We did not rely on luck for doing so, so we initially selected two AstraHD8 trucks equipped with Allison transmissions. "" Astra and Bonatti, who have worked side by side for 30 years, have endorsed the selection of HD8 trucks known for their reliability, applicability and ease of handling. The cab and bodywork design helps the vehicle to carry huge pipes up to 17 meters in diameter and DN1400 (56") and weighs 14 tons. This special custom vehicle offers greater flexibility and reduces the size of the front end. In a 10-hour shift, the Astra HD8 can carry two 56" pipes at a time. The robustness and reliability of the Astra HD8 ensure that the Astra face the challenge with ease. The HD8 is often used on muddy non-highway roads caused by frequent rainfall. The vehicle will carry the pipeline for a certain distance and arrive at the designated place for loading and unloading. Bonatti requested that the AstraHD8 be equipped with Allison 4700 Series fully automatic gearboxes equipped with a retarder. Designed for vehicles operating in the most demanding operating conditions, Allison ContinuousPower TechnologyTM (Uninterrupted Power Technology) guarantees unmatched start-up and smooth shifting characteristics. Considering the extremely challenging road conditions and the weight of the pipeline, the gearbox on each vehicle is equipped with a hydraulic retarder. Simple operation is also the reason for selecting the Allison automatic transmission. It is easier for the team to find the right driver. "For us, the Allison automatic gearbox is critical." Mr. Gelmi said: "We must avoid rolling the vehicle forward or backward when the vehicle is heavily loaded on a slope." Such a heavy load can seriously damage the manual transmission. The power system caused vehicle breakdowns and shutdowns. Speaking of the standard for selecting vehicles for new projects, Bonatti's team managers emphasized "ruggedness and reliability". Astra and Allison transmissions are known for their quality. Bonatti also found that the AstraHD8 truck has a particularly low fuel consumption compared to competitors' vehicles. Mr. Gelmi said: "Bonatti needs vehicles capable of transporting pipelines in muddy and extremely challenging road conditions. The AstraHD8 is a rugged and reliable off-highway truck that is well suited for transporting large pipelines. Because the Allison automatic transmission is deployed, the vehicle has a good The controllability, ease of driving, and higher safety when climbing heavy loads. The use of Allison also provided the driver with maximum comfort." Due to the extremely short project execution time, another important element of Bonatti's concern is the calculated vehicle efficiency based on run time and downtime. The vehicle should also be fault-free and have low maintenance costs to avoid costly delays. The Bonatti team manager added: "We must avoid the risk to the whole project caused by the suspension of vehicles. The suspension of the vehicle may also lead to domino effect and delay the work of other phases of the project." The Nordic natural gas pipeline has been completed and delivered on time, Bonatti chose The combination of Astra and Allison transmissions also won. The AstraHD8 truck is very powerful and can be heavily loaded on any road or even with high road conditions. Its Cursor engine has high torque and powerful braking force, Allison retarder makes it perform better. These vehicles have high performance performance while providing high flexibility and are designed for the construction industry and mining industry. With more than 250 different models, the Astra is available in a wide range of configurations from dual 4x4 to four-axle 8x8, and can be fitted with custom chassis of different lengths for similar Bonatti pipelines. Four shock absorbers (two in front of the cab and two behind the vehicle) provide maximum comfort. The frame is made of high-strength steel that responds to the harshest road conditions. end feed Bronze Fittings is designed according to kembla and connex type .but the quality is same as kembla bronze fittings and coneex bronze fittings,End Feed Bronze Fittings,end feed gunmetal fittings,kembla bronze fittings,connex bronze fittings End Feed Bronze Fittings,end feed gunmetal fittings,kembla bronze fittings,connex bronze fittings Taizhou Runde Company , https://www.nerausmotor.com
