Wind Turbine Yaw Bearings
Four-point contact ball bearings for wind turbine pitch systems
Installed within the yaw system at the base of a wind turbine, these bearings are responsible for supporting the entire weight of the main drive system. They are engineered to handle immense static and dynamic loads, including the overturning moments caused by wind forces, the turbine's own weight, and external impacts from harsh environmental conditions. Their performance is key to the efficiency and stability of the turbine, as well as its overall lifespan.
Typically, yaw bearings utilize single-row or double-row four-point contact ball bearings, with gear configurations available in either external or internal teeth. ZZ offers a variety of yaw bearings designed for wind turbines with capacities ranging from 1.5MW to 25MW, ensuring they meet the specific needs of different turbine models and operational demands.
As a key component of wind turbines, the gearbox plays a critical role in converting the rotational energy of the blades into electrical power.
Wind turbine shrink discs ensure the secure connection between the main rotor shaft and the high-speed gearbox shaft, facilitating the safe and efficient transmission of torque within wind turbines.
Wind turbine high-speed shaft couplings are designed to connect the gearbox to the generator in wind turbines.
These double-row spherical roller bearings are specially designed for wind turbine main shafts.
