3 Key Factors for Maximizing Operation Time and Minimizing Downtime of Wind Turbines
Fundamental to success is the optimizing of critical components, the continuous monitoring of structural elements, and the professional testing of the entire design.
Three facts should be closely considered to achive this aim:
1. Develop more efficiently
Identifying potential weaknesses in critical components already during the design phase of the wind power system, e.g. using advanced analysis and fatigue software
2. Assure component quality
Component quality in the test and production phase can be ensured by using sensors, e.g. for extremely high forces and torques, as well as amplifiers and the corresponding measurement software from HBM.
3. Permanent assess of system status
Monitoring the status of rotor blades, towers and foundations also under water using HBM test and measurement equipment - a perfect insight that grants continuous status assess of turbine and structures

Wind power is the energy of the future. As a result, the requirements for wind power turbine designs are increasing - both onshore and offshore. Wind power needs the security of valid tests and measurement results - in the development and operation of components and complete wind power systems.
HBM offers a wide range of products and solutions for safer generation of wind energy. Benefit from perfectly balanced measurement chains comprising transducers, amplifiers and software from a single source.
HBM also offers a wide range of services and contract measurements for drafting offices, manufacturers and operators of wind power plants, both onshore and offshore.
