Wind turbine has a dual drive gearhead that is called the wind turbine
gearhead. They efficiently reduce reflected inertia while amplifying the
torque output. They comprise of bearings, shaft seal, vibration mounts,
and gasket.Features
They are available in broad range of sizes, capacities and speed ratios. Their job is to convert the input provided by a prime mover into an output of lower RPM and correspondingly higher torque.
Maintenance
Periodic inspection of the gearbox is necessary to avoid the cost of changing the product, and to keep them safe from wear and tear. An annual check of all switches and sensors should be performed to verify operation as per lubrication system settings. Pumps and other motorized accessories should be checked at scheduled intervals.
