Lance head replacement: minor change, major impact

TechnoAlpin’s latest snow producers are certainly impressive with high snow output at borderline temperatures coupled with outstanding efficiency. But you don’t always have to replace the entire snow producer per se to benefit from the latest technological advances. In the case of lances, head replacement is a straightforward, cost-effective option. A plus factor for environment and ski area budgets alike.


The head plays a key role in lance performance. So an upgrade to the technological state-of-the-art is a simple and cost-effective step. To make the most of the latest developments, just replace the head - the rest of the lance stays the same. TechnoAlpin will collect the old lance heads. These are mainly produced from aluminum and are fully reintegrated into the value chain.

Faible besoin en énergie, lancement de l’enneigement anticipé

Les nouvelles têtes de lance de TechnoAlpin se distinguent par une performance d’enneigement nettement supérieure, surtout dans les plages de température marginales. Pour en arriver à ce résultat, une série d’étapes de développement a été mise en place aux cours des dernières années. Ainsi, les niveaux de réglage ont été nettement optimisés sur l’ensemble des plages de température marginales, de sorte que les nouvelles lances fonctionnent toujours à leur rendement optimal. La consommation d’air est mieux contrôlée, ce qui permet de consommer moins d’énergie au total.
 

La capacité d’enneigement des nouveaux modèles est nettement plus élevée. La période d’enneigement est donc considérablement réduite et le bilan énergétique est optimisé. Les économies d’énergie varient de 35 % à 70 % selon les modèles.

En outre, les lances de la nouvelle génération permettent un démarrage plus précoce de l’enneigement, un avantage décisif lorsqu’il s’agit de savoir si le domaine skiable peut ouvrir ou non. Alors que les anciens modèles démarrent à une température de bulbe humide de -3,5 °C, les nouveaux modèles peuvent commencer à produire de la neige dès -2,5 °C de température de bulbe humide.

Le remplacement d’une tête de lance présente donc les avantages suivants, outre le faible investissement et le zéro déchet : le bilan carbone est optimisé, la qualité de la neige est améliorée et le lancement de l’enneigement se fait plus tôt.
