The many benefits from choosing a repair solution for the yaw ring and pitch gear.

YAW RINGS – PITCH REPAIR SOLUTION.

Yaw rings are a vital component for the wind turbine, in order for orienting the turbine in the direction of the wind. However, worn-down yaw rings are a common challenge, normally requiring dismantling of the nacelle with heavy lifting equipment and replacing the entire yaw ring – An extensive and costly repair, causing critical downtime for the wind turbine. In countries with unstable weather conditions, scheduling the use of heavy lifting equipment in advance might as well be a costly affaire, if there is too much wind and rescheduling is required.

The yaw ring repair procedure (which also works for pitch gears) is a cost-effectice and flexible solution performed up tower both on- and offshore with no need for replacing the entire yaw ring and therefore neither for the use of heavy lifting equipment. Our certified yaw ring repair procedure, including pre and post inspections, is performed onsite, repairing only the worn-down teeth, and thereby reducing the downtime of the turbine to only a few days. 

With our yaw rings pitch repair, we offer our customers a solution at minimum cost and risk with no need for lifting operations and thereby getting the wind turbine back to producing power as fast as possible.
