Exchange of planet carrier bearing by Winergy

https://www.winergy-group.com Winergy has developed a procedure in which the bearing of the planet carrier can be replaced without having to remove the gearbox from the nacelle. With the aid of specifically designed fixtures it is possible to move the gearbox in the nacelle and thus, the bearing can be removed. This procedure was successfully tested on the first gearbox on a customer’s turbine and others are to follow.
