A smart solution for tailored linking technology
Maintaining wind turbines and identifying potential vulnerabilities is expensive and time-consuming, especially when they are located offshore. As a result, rotor blades are often simply replaced, a costly process, when damage is merely suspected. The Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS, working in concert with the Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy Systems IWES, has developed a solution that can be used to identify cracks and breakages inside the blades remotely at an early stage.
The safety solutions provider has been successful in its digitalisation strategy, which has been helped by international expansion and strategic acquisitions.
The main goal of this cooperation is to develop a future ready gearmotors based on ultra-high efficiency EM-A series motors. By combining effort together with Tramec, Mitsubishi Electric is expanding its product range with components for customers seeking high-end drive solutions and improved energy efficiency.
