Severe temperature fluctuations, strong winds, turbulence and sand storms: wind turbines have to work reliably even when exposed to harsh weather conditions. igus offers many solutions for wind turbines as well as for the associated equipment used in production, transport and installation. These can help you reduce downtime and costs. The components required include robust energy chains and highly flexible cables for torsional movements which are used, for example, in towers, azimuth systems and rotor blade adjustment. Wear-resistant bar stock and high-performance plain bearings, which do not need lubrication or maintenance, are ideally suited for use in rotor blade adjustment and brake systems.
This year, we are launching a total of 168 innovations. Industry Manager Richard Won presents the top innovations for the wind power industry in just three minutes. For example, the cost-effective, heavy-duty iglidur TX2 fibre wound bearings:
Modular e-chain as an alternative to the service loop
Telescopic and twistable e-chain

All products are tested for wear and durability under real-life conditions in the igus test laboratory, the largest in the industry. The results are entered into our service life calculation tools for precise durability predictions.
Upon request, igus carries out customer tests to check product use under completely tailored conditions.
A start-up based in Brandenburg has developed a mobile maintenance platform for the rotors of wind turbines, which allows repair work in almost any weather and at any time of the day. chainflex® cables, energy chains and iglidur® plain bearings are on board.
