Avoid downtime. Maximize performance and lifespan.
In the wind energy sector, maximizing turbine uptime is critical. Core components like slewing and rolling bearings play a vital role. When they fail, entire wind turbines can grind to a halt, costs rise, and pressure mounts. That is why our aftermarket and service solutions are designed with one goal in mind: keeping turbines running and enabling service teams to work efficiently.
As one of the leading manufacturers of slewing bearings, we are your strategic partner throughout the entire lifecycle of the bearings in your wind turbine.
