Wind energy

Spherical roller bearings for main rotors designed for demanding wind farm operating conditions.

Properties: Optimized internal bearing geometry Symmetric rolling elements NEW FORCE standard Increased accuracy Main dimensions according to the ISO dimensional plan One-piece brass cage guided on the inner ring

Advantages: It transmits high loads Long service life They compensate for misalignments and deflections in the main shaft Easy re-lubrication

Advanced spherical roller bearings are optimized according to the specific operating conditions of wind turbines and take into account the special requirements of the customer.

Properties: Optimized internal bearing geometry Increased axial bearing capacity Symmetric rolling elements NEW FORCE standard Increased accuracy Main dimensions according to the ISO dimensional plan Two-piece brass cage on the inner ring Coated rolling elements High quality of functional surfaces

Advantages: It transmits higher axial loads Longer service life They compensate for misalignments and deflections in the main shaft Easy re-lubrication High operating efficiency

The design of the bearings is adapted to the requirements of mounting in a housing with an optimized unique cage solution.

Properties: Optimized internal bearing geometry NEW FORCE standard Special segmented cage High quality of functional surfaces High axial bearing capacity

Advantages: Very rigid placement Long service life High operating efficiency Low weight

We design bearings and suitable bearing arrangement with regard to specific loads and operating conditions of customers with regard to cost minimization. The actual production and delivery of bearings to wind turbines is preceded by conceptual project management. It includes calculations of bearing durability and contact stresses based on data simulating the actual operation of the power plant.
