Testing makes a difference

Main bearings are the heart of every rotor in wind turbines. They carry enormous loads throughout the turbine’s lifetime and must, therefore, undergo rigorous testing to ensure reliability and efficiency.

A 28-meter-long and 8-meter-high test bench on our site in Biberach helps to achieve these results. It is capable of testing main bearings with an outer diameter of up to six metres. By advancing testing capabilities at this scale, we position ourselves at the forefront of technology in the wind energy sector, making a decisive contribution to cleaner and more sustainable energy supply.
