Manufacturing solutions for key components in wind turbines

The quality of a product depends to a large degree on the quality of its components. How key components will perform in the future is already determined during manufacturing.

For wind turbine components, manufacturing processes such as turning, gearing, and grinding have a direct impact on the functionality and quality. That is why the companies of the DVS TECHNOLOGY GROUP pay special attention to the performance and durability of the components produced with our metal cutting machines and systems.

In particular, components such as the main gear, pitch, and azimuth adjustment or large bearings are subjected to significant stresses during operation. Using our high level of expertise, we are able to counteract wear early on and thus contribute to the sustainability and durability of wind turbines.

Producing flawless components with machines from DVS
WIND TURBINES Main gear

The main gear is one of the most critical assemblies of the wind turbine. Its job is to transform the variable speed generated by the rotor into the speed needed by the generator. Larger wind turbines with outputs of several megawatts use high-precision planetary gears, the components of which are manufactured on the machine tools from the DVS TECHNOLOGY GROUP.

Manufacturing with the PV series from PITTLER – The all-rounder for medium to large components.
WIND TURBINES Pitch and azimuth gears

The ability to adjust the pitch and azimuth is critical to the economical operation of a wind turbine, as the ideal wind yield can only be obtained by adjusting the blade (pitch) and wind direction tracking (azimuth). This is where planetary gears are generally used. The DVS TECHNOLOGY GROUP offers tailor-made manufacturing solutions for the gear components.
WIND TURBINES Large bearings

Rotor bearings, blade bearings, and nacelle adjustment bearings require maximum precision. And with wind turbines producing ever higher outputs, the dimensions of the bearings required are also getting bigger. The DVS TECHNOLOGY GROUP offers economical and at the same highly precise manufacturing solutions, which enable the manufacture of bearing rings with a diameter of up to 4,000 mm.
