Rotor optimisation reduces wear and tear on vital facility parts and saves repair costs.

Intensified vibration occurring with many wind energy facilities accelerates the wear of mechanical system components. Static and dynamic imbalances and blade angle misalignment of the rotor blades leads to significant and premature material fatigue in important components.

Increased noise, cracks in rotor blades, damage to the pitch mechanism, blade bearing damage with lubricant leakage, gear damage, fractures in the main frame and wear of the azimuth brakes are the result.

Small corrections with huge effects.

To address these wear characteristics in good time, after an effective vibration analysis we have measures and techniques for rotor blade imbalances and blade angle corrections. Thus, both the dynamic and mass-related rotor imbalances and blade misalignments can be reliably corrected and a reduction in the vibrations of the rotor and nacelle achieved. High yield losses and repair costs are minimised in the long-term and sustainably with these corrective measures.

Regardless of the hub height, whether at an individual location or in a wind farm, we provide quickly and reliably for the optimum performance of your wind turbine.

Performance positions – Rotor optimisation:

• Vibration analysis (rotor and nacelle)
• Blade angle check and adjustment
• Control of blade imbalances (static and dynamic)
• Imbalance removal (trimming)
