Making Wind Turbine Assembly a Breeze
In the constantly changing landscape of the wind power industry, turbine design is being taken to new levels in order to maximise efficiency. Larger parts with tighter tolerances are being used, higher quality materials are demanded, reliability is essential and cost-efficiency is a must. HYTORC has been involved in turbine assembly since the early days of the industry, and has invested heavily to stay ahead of the curve as methods and materials have progressed. This article describes some of the new techniques and products from HYTORC that make wind turbine manufacturing and maintenance simpler, faster and more cost-effective.
