Wind Turbine Yaw Gearbox

ByWindmills Tech Editor

Power from the yaw motors is transmitted to the yaw ring through a reduction gearbox which provides both speed reduction and torque multiplication. This yaw drive uses a planetary gearbox with the motor mounted vertically at the top. Planetary gearboxes are often used on commercial wind turbines because they offer high reduction ratios from a…

How Wind Turbine blades are Manufactured?

ByWindmills Tech Editor

Wind turbine blades are remarkable feats of engineering, transforming the power of the wind into clean electricity. The materials they are made from and the methods used to construct them have a profound impact on their power output, longevity, and overall sustainability. The ideal blade is made from strong yet lightweight materials that can withstand…
