Casted Components As impressive as the ready gearboxes, or the completed wind turbines are, they are a symphony of their parts. Some components are large, some are small, but they are all important in bringing clean renewable wind energy closer to everyone. One such component are the castings us...
Trend of bigger wind turbines installed on lower wind sites has become evident for onshore wind turbine component suppliers. As rotor size increases, the input torque to be transmitted through drivetrain also increases. This puts torque transmitting components under increasing strength requirements....
Services spanning from predictive maintenance to up-tower repairs Moventas high-qualified technicians and engineers can perform up-tower repairs even on non-Moventas gearboxes. Moventas team in Italy has recently completed successfully an up-tower repair on a 2 MW wind turbine. The work included th...
Non-inspectable bearings Sometimes some bearings in wind turbine gearboxes are not reachable with endoscope probe. This is a common issue for specific gearbox models, where several bearings are partially or completely non-inspectable. That is caused by either the tight construction of the bearing i...
Moventas and SentientScience have studied GE 1.5 gearboxes as premature failures in the gearboxes are driving unexpected downtime and increased costs. The premature failure modes were prevented by Moventas upgrades and verified in DigitalClone® Software. The results of the computational testing are ...
