Forgings and Castings Wind Turbine Main Shaft Ductile Cast Iron
0.75-6MW
A wind turbine generates electricity by harnessing the power of
wind. A wind turbine shaft is the most central part of a wind
turbine, subjected to highly dynamic loads and operating
conditions. The energy from wind is converted into mechanical
energy with the help of blades and rotors, which is then
transferred to a generator through the gear box and shaft.
The wind turbine generally consists of two types of shafts i.e.
main shaft and generator shaft. The main shaft is a low speed shaft
with the turbine rotor bolted through a strong disc. The generator
shaft is a high speed shaft coupled with the output shaft of the
gearbox.

Advantages for the casting main shaft compared with the forging
main shaft
- Casting molding, reduce the amount of processing, lower than
forging cost.
- The outer ring metal shape ensures the densification of the spindle
surface.
- The internal quality of the spindle is ensured by optimizing the
process through simulation.
- Ensure the safety of production process through reasonable design
of tooling.
Wind power castings Test
