Repairing Wind Turbine Gears and Assemblies with Isotropic Superfinishing
As the wind turbine industry matures, the importance of operations and management (O&M) costs grows. In the early years of large kilowatt and small megawatt class wind turbines, pre-mature gearbox failure due to gear fatigue was very common and was a...
