Components

Since 1996, Liebherr has been producing high-quality and reliable components for the operation of wind turbines. These include slewing bearings (main bearings, blade bearings, azimuth bearings) and drives (pitch drives and yaw drives). Our products that are designed specifically for the challenges of the wind energy sector find application in blade adjustment, yaw systems and rotor bearing.

Concrete technology

Towers made from concrete segments constitute the very foundation of wind turbines. The high-performance mixing plants in the Betomat and Betomix series from Liebherr are used to manufacture concrete used in these sophisticated segments. Thanks to precise process controls and moisture-measuring systems, the concrete is perfectly matched to the strict quality requirements.

Gear technology

In wind power, components are required to satisfy extremely strict quality standards. Liebherr gear cutting machines make an essential contribution to this, since they ensure the best possible production quality of all toothed parts, for example the slewing bearing for rotor blade and yaw adjustment. The manufacturing technologies include gear hobbing, gear shaping and skiving, as well as generating grinding and profile grinding.
