Extending main-shaft bearing life in wind turbines

The test results validate using SKF NoWear coating technology in rolling elements signiicantly increases main-shaft bearing reliability, with the goal of reducing LCoE in the wind energy segment.
Operating Conditions of a Main Bearing Contact in a Commercial

SKF provided design verification support tool (DVST) sensors, which were installed in a GE 1.5-megawatt SLE turbine at NREL. We examine the axial and sliding motion, loads, and lubrication of
Investigation of tribological behavior and failure mechanisms of PEEK

Comprehensive tests reveal tribological behavior and failure mechanisms of sliding bearings under typical wind turbine conditions. PEEK composites show excellent self-lubrication and
Serving Industries Worldwide Wind Turbine Bearings

Scheerer Radial ball bearings deliver ease of installation and are ideal for ap-plications where equipment reliability is paramount and component availability is critical.
Wind turbine generator bearing adhesion

Liu et al. examined a comparative study of bearing current on three different types of wind turbine generators: doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous
Next-Generation Adhesives for Wind Turbine Blades | adhesion

Glass fiber-free, toughened adhesives have been introduced over the past decade to the wind market as a second generation designed for longer blades. While these adhesives feature the
NTN Bearings for Wind Turbines

Wind turbine technology continues to demand increased efficiency, reliability and longer service life of equipment. Innovative bearing designs from NTN are instrumental in these improvements and in
Sliding moment bearing as a main bearing in wind turbine

Motivation Main bearings in Wind Turbines Failure rate of Main bearings is relatively low, but Co-responsible for high downtimes, due to their complex replacement. “Problem” seems to increase To
Timken White Paper

The need for larger megawatt (MW) class turbines has increased, but scaling up traditional turbine designs has been problematic. Wind operators can select upgraded spherical roller bearings (SRBs)
