We look at how black oxide bearings could help to improve operational reliability in wind turbines, by driving downtime requirements and minimising machine breakdowns.
Tom Fowler, Business Development Manager of ACORN’s specialist Couplings and Drives division, explains how SKF OK couplings could help save you money.
The wind energy industry plays a central role in the production of renewable power sources across the globe. By 2030, Britain intends to generate a third of its power requirements from both onshore and offshore wind energy, making the continued growth of the sector crucial.
In this article, we discover the types of bearings used in each section of a wind turbine, along with the options available to enhance service life.
The majority of wind turbines are expected to have a service life of over 20 years, meaning that breakdown is almost inevitable at some point during a turbine’s lifetime. The question is: how big an impact will any breakdown have on the business?
We would just like to take the time to thank yourself and the team for the service that was supplied during our main outage.
Wind farms and wind turbines are a subject which can summon a range of different views and feelings ranging from delight in wind being used as power to absolute disgust that large turbines are appearing...
Solar power is an industry which is now growing considerably as its uses and advantages become more apparent and the research into renewable energy deepens.
