Specialist Repairs: Processes, Solutions & Tooling

Weld repair of gear teeth

Develop repair procedures and quality checks for suitable yaw and pitch gear-ring damage.

Customized repair solutions

Develop site-specific repair solutions for yaw systems, main-shaft components, pitch bearings and related systems.

Large-scale tooling development

Develop tooling for tasks such as single-blade replacement, matched to turbine, load and site conditions.

Assess repairability against damage, material and site conditions; define procedures and acceptance per project.

Case and application

Weld Repair: Yaw & Pitch Gear Teeth

Damage and repairability

Assess cracks, broken teeth, lubrication and uneven loading; confirm the substrate and repairable area.

Materials and repair process

Use high-strength base repair and wear-resistant surface cladding, followed by tooth-profile machining.

Quality checks and handover

Check tooth geometry, surface quality and hardness against the procedure; verify meshing and plan follow-up.

Select materials and procedures for the substrate and damage; individual test values are not universal guarantees.

Case and application

Customized Repair Solutions

Yaw systems

Tailor repair and machining to gear rings, drive mounting surfaces, gear meshing and component fits.

Main shafts and pitch bearings

Use damage findings, lubrication and access conditions to define the repair route and tooling.

System-level repairs

Investigate mechanical, electrical and control issues; coordinate testing and post-repair checks.

Positioning, support and disassembly tooling is designed around component geometry and access constraints to support field repairs.

Tailor work to turbine design, damage, site constraints and downtime windows; local repairs do not establish full turbine recovery.

Case and application

Large-scale Tooling: Single-blade Replacement

Task and constraints

Assess lifting paths, interfaces, loads and working space for single-blade replacement.

Joint development

Develop suitable tooling with engineering partners; source material records an initial trial.

Engineering purpose

Adapt lifting and blade positioning to site conditions

Review lifting plans for turbine type, site and wind conditions; estimate time and cost per project

Case and application

Repair Processes & Purpose-Built Tooling

Gear-ring repair development

Develop material repair, surface cladding and profile-machining processes based on tooth damage assessment, with quality checks

Yaw brake-disc repair tooling

Develop in-situ milling tools for scoring and pitting; assess suitability against remaining thickness and damage

Yaw-drive mounting repair

Develop face and bore repair tools for distorted mounting interfaces; verify geometry, meshing and installation

Development considers access, machining datums and outage windows; process parameters and acceptance are equipment-specific.
