The future of wind energy

g 04

Our planet needs good ideas

Our world faces major challenges. Global demand for resources is growing, but available raw
material reserves are finite. How can we manage scarce resources efficiently and ensure
security of supply for future generations? Climate conditions on our planet are changing rapidly.
The consequences are already becoming visible.
How can we protect ourselves effectively from climate change? More and more people in the
world want a western standard of living. But how can we provide enough energy for this while
minimizing the impact on the environment? Energy is expensive and is becoming scarcer.
Thats not going to change in the future.
How can we use energy as responsibly as possible? How can we tap unlimited energy sources?
ThyssenKrupp with its engineering expertise offers a wide variety of solutions for these
global challenges in the areas Material, Mechanical and Plant, and is constantly seeking further
innovative responses.

The future of wind energy

Environmental responsibility, climate protection and resource conservation are firmly established in our corporate strategy.

g 06

Solutions for a future worth living

We regard it as our duty to help shape a sustainable future for present and future generations.
In everything we do, we attach great importance to considering economic, social and environmental
aspects and to doing business in a sustainable way.
Our strategy is based on the global drivers of demographics, advancing urbanization and
globalization, as well as the constraints imposed by climate change, finite resources and political conditions.
Using resources and energy efficiently and avoiding emissions are areas in which we have already
come a long way, both in our own production processes and in the solutions and products we
offer our customers.
New eco-friendly technologies are taking us further down this path, meeting needs for both
more and better. They present business opportunities, strengthen our competitiveness and
help secure jobs. As a solution provider for our customers, we develop innovative technologies
and materials that open up new roads and help shape a sustainable future.

The future of wind energy

By developing innovative technologies

and materials, we are helping to shape the future
in an environmentally and economically
responsible way.

Our solutions for wind power point

the way forward
Demand for electricity from renewable energies is rising rapidly. Wind power is already
playing an important role in this today, and will gain further importance in the future. In many
regions of the world, governments are promoting the production of wind energy. While the
efficiency levels of wind turbines are already quite high, the intermittent way they produce
electricity requires further advances in energy storage and improved connections between
energy producers and consumers. Through improvements to turbines and generators, wind
energy plants are becoming more economic, even in areas with only moderate wind conditions.
The aim must be to install efficient wind turbines at suitable locations in such a way that they
can ultimately compete against conventional large-scale power plants without government
support (e.g. through feed-in payments as in the German system). Offshore wind turbines are
the current trend. Strong and steady winds make for much higher power yields. Repowering
is another important area replacing old wind turbines with new, more powerful and more
efficient units.
In the field of offshore wind energy utilization, too, our customers profit from our unique
knowledge of technologies and materials. Our research and development centers work to
continuously improve our products and secure the highest quality standards. We focus
systematically on innovation. We have particularly extensive materials expertise in electricity
production, transmission and distribution. In recent years, we have developed groundbreaking
solutions for optimizing efficiency. We constantly seek out and exploit innovative ideas to
benefit our customers.

The future of wind energy

We strive to develop products that protect

environment and climate. Our outstanding
engineering expertise also benefits our wind
turbine customers.

Slewing bearings

Detailed information on slewing bearings

Slewing bearings for wind turbines absorb all axial and radial forces and the resulting tilting moments in a
single bearing unit. They are compact in design and have an excellent power-to-weight ratio. Rothe Erde
slewing bearings are used as rotor, yaw and pitch bearings.

g Available in diameters from 300 to 8,000 mm in closed design

The yaw and pitch bearings mainly perform adjusting movements. Continuously changing loads place a
particular strain on the pitch adjustment bearings. We produce slightly preloaded yaw and pitch bearings
with defined frictional torques to prevent false brinelling.

Various surface treatments are available to ensure external corrosion protection, such as sand blasting
g 
and subsequent zinc flame spraying to EN 22063

The rotor and main bearing, as a self-contained thrust bearing, is subjected to extremely high dynamic
loads. It permits a compact and light nacelle design by dispensing with the need for a rotor shaft.
Three-row cylindrical roller bearings and two-row tapered roller bearings with special seals have proved
particularly successful for these applications.

Service lift solutions

ThyssenKrupp is one of the worlds leading elevator companies. We have

developed a new range of service lifts specifically for the maintenance and
repair of wind turbines.

>>
Further information can be found
in the service lift flyer

Our SL 250 and SL 250 Reversible service lifts are designed with the needs of service technicians in mind
and offer space for two people including tools. Special cable tensioning devices reduce cab movements
to a minimum. In the patented R design of the SL 250 Reversible, the support and safety cables are
guided through the inside of the cab over a length of around 3 meters to enhance safety. The units are
driven by an electric cable hoist, which positions the service lift on a support cable.
The parallel safety cable passes through an integrated overspeed safety device. The modular design can
be adapted to individual customer requirements. Together with the product, the installation and service
know-how is also passed on to the customer to allow maintenance work to be carried out in-house. That
saves costs and time and gives our customers greater flexibility.

Further product details:

g Our lifts comply with the machinery directive 2006/42/CE and can be equipped with accessories
such as cab lighting and control panels (optional cable tensioning devices to simplify installation and
operation)
g The standard SL 250 model has a load capacity of max. 250 kg (other variants on request)
g The SL 250 Reversible features a new design: the hoist is arranged below the cab (patent pending)
This provides for greater headroom, safety, stability and storage space
g The sophisticated product design simplifies installation and maintenance. Cable maintenance can be
carried out inside the cab for greater safety and faster completion
g Materials and tools are transported by remote control intermediate stops for repairs are also
possible in this way

Special equipment for foundation work

ThyssenKrupp GfT Bautechnik and ThyssenKrupp GfT Tiefbautechnik hire out and sell special equipment
for foundation work, such as for tripod or jacket structures for offshore installations. Services include
detailed advice on the choice of equipment and accessories.
Maximum equipment availability on site is guaranteed by personnel who have been specially trained and
certified for offshore work. One of our latest pioneering achievements is the successful offshore use of
advanced vibration technology. The MS-200 HHF vibrator used for this has a centrifugal force of 400 metric
tons and meets the high accuracy requirements for foundations by vibration driving pipe piles weighing
up to 160 metric tons.
This technique is low-noise and thus eco-friendly. Simple on-site settings to improve work progress
allow the vibrator to be ideally adapted to seabed conditions. For large installations, we plan the use of
more powerful or coupled units with modifications which simplify procedures and thus save costs.

Anchors
To keep piles firmly embedded in the seabed, ThyssenKrupp GfT Bautechnik supplies anchors, so-called
grouted piles, which are drilled down to the bedrock and pressure-grouted. The grouted pile is a tubular
anchor and is supplied by ThyssenKrupp GfT Bautechnik as a micropile.
With this kind of anchor, operations such as inserting tie rods and extracting casings are no longer necessary.
Anchor drilling equipment rounds out the product range.

Condition monitoring solutions

As a world leader in innovative testing equipment, ThyssenKrupp

System Engineering has developed an online condition
monitoring system MDI-Wind especially for wind turbines.

>>
MDI-Wind supports all common
fieldbus systems data transfer can
also be realized via UMTS

The system remotely monitors all wind turbine components as the basis for condition-based maintenance.
The system both software and hardware is of modular, open design. It records the structure-borne
sound signatures of drivetrain elements, rotor blades and tower, collecting operating data from the turbine
control system and condition monitoring data in a single system.
The intelligent evaluation and linking of the recorded signals permits adaptive monitoring strategies.
MDI-Wind is OEM-independent. Hardware and software were developed by the same company. Our
customers can tailor evaluation strategies and sensor systems to their specific equipment. Know-how
from cooperation partners can be integrated easily, e. g. for blade and foundation monitoring.
The advantage is that a single system is responsible for all monitoring parameters. Integration is
straightforward as there is only one interface to the wind turbine. MDI-Wind makes it possible to include
load and speed variations in evaluations, and when limits are exceeded it automatically triggers an
alarm via a diagnostics center around the clock, 365 days a year.

Other product advantages

g Monitoring of the complete drivetrain (bearings, gear unit, generator, oil), integration of tower and
rotor blade monitoring and torque measurement can also be adapted to a gearless turbine
g Continuous data collection in the wind turbine (pre-processing, interim data storage) and transfer
to a central database
g Visualization and statistics (e. g. trend analyses), reports for remote maintenance planning and
long-term archiving
