Wind power

Writer： admin Time：2022-06-28

      The wind power industry is under intense pressure to reduce maintenance costs and save per MWh by improving wind turbine design, improving performance and reliability, and wind turbine operators must ensure that their equipment stays running for as long as possible , due to often operating in harsh conditions, at sea, in cold climates or remote areas, the performance and reliability of wind turbines are challenged, and they also face high maintenance costs and long lead times for replacement parts. The use of reliable components and intelligent processes is critical.

  

      Special bearings for wind turbines require high reliability. This is because the premise of the design of this kind of bearing is to ensure the operation of the windmill for 20 years, and, in the event of a failure, the parts are not easy to replace. Therefore, bearing manufacturers are required to have a high degree of computer analysis technology and superb skills in materials and heat treatment, and sometimes also need to master the test evaluation technology of large-scale bearings. The main shaft configuration of the wind turbine is gear transmission, semi-direct drive or direct drive design. Part of it, regardless of configuration, must be able to withstand axial and radial loads and be able to operate under changing harsh conditions, and we offer suitable products for every type of configuration and turbine design.

      Anything that reduces maintenance can improve return on investment while reducing the average cost of energy. We have worked with leading OEMs for many years to optimize wind turbine performance, increase equipment reliability and power generation. We design and Develop bearings, seals, condition monitoring systems and lubrication systems that contribute to more cost-effective wind power generation and lower lubricant consumption.
