According to ZEISS Kunshan Youshuo, wind turbine blades are by far the largest single component. The design is based on complex process plans and must meet aerodynamic, static, and weight-related technical requirements.
Large bearings mated to the wind turbine hubs are essential to ensure that everything runs smoothly in power generation: they are designed with low noise and low heat generation. Due to the extreme forces that the bearings are subjected to over time, even the slightest design deviation can lead to increased noise and heat emissions, which can eventually lead to an outage of the entire system due to excessive wear.
However, when inspecting giant workpieces with diameters of up to 8 meters, inspection tolerances in the micron range are a great challenge. The high performance of the ZEISS MMZ G large bridge measuring machine is able to meet the high accuracy and stability required by customers, even in the face of large measuring ranges. The ZEISS MMZ G enables comprehensive inspection of the shape, distance and diameter of the relevant holes, as well as the shape and position tolerances such as height, parallelism and flatness of the workpiece. e.g. ZEISS MMZ G 80 80 20 – Bearing rings with an outer diameter of up to 8,000 mm can be measured.
