Rescue and Evacuation Descent Device

ResQ DD

ResQ DD is a rescue and evacuation device that facilitates the descent of workers from a wind power station. With the help of the patented Direct Drive technology, the torque of the centrifugal brake is directly transferred to the rope. The manual winch function is based on a worm gear and is activated by folding out the crank. In the manual mode, the user can let go of the crank without unintentionally lowering the load.

Statement by the Jury

The design concept of the ResQ DD, which is based on centrifugal force, strongly addresses high standards of safety and control.
