System and method for leveling a trailer
Last updated:
Abstract:
A mobile power plant system includes a trailer having a first leg extending from the trailer and having a first gear assembly, a second leg extending from the trailer and having a second gear assembly, and one or more turbine components positioned on the trailer. The mobile power plant system also includes a leveling system having a first power tool coupled with the first gear assembly, a second power tool coupled with the second gear assembly, a first level sensor corresponding with the first power tool, a second level sensor corresponding with the second power tool, and a controller communicatively coupled with the first level sensor and the second level sensor. The controller receives data, from the first level sensor, indicative of a first attitude of the trailer proximate to the first leg. The controller receives data, from the second level sensor, indicative of a second attitude of the trailer proximate to the second leg. The controller monitors the first attitude and the second attitude, and adjusts a first force applied by the first power tool, a second force applied by the second power tool, or both based on the first attitude, the second attitude, or both.
