ZF Wind Power and Vestas have launched the first serially produced EnVentus powertrain onto the wind market. The platform design is the result of a strategic partnership between the companies.
The integrated and modular powertrain design includes a main shaft, a main bearing housing, a two-stage planetary gearbox and a permanent magnet generator. The EnVentus powertrain offers an output of up to 6.0MW and is developed and tested at the facilities of ZF Wind Power in Lommel, Belgium.
