Following the closure of a renowned wind turbine gearbox manufacturer in Klipphausen, Germany, the production inventory is now being disposed of. Surplex is offering several comprehensive auctions and direct sales of the used machinery. The first auction closes on 10 April and includes approximately 200 lots.

This offer reflects the former overall performance of the German site.
