Design and realization of a pre-production platform for wind turbine manufacturing

Addressing the challenge of rehearsing large-scale equipment assembly, particularly for oversized components like wind turbine towers, hubs, nacelles, and blades, which often face quality issues such as substandard workmanship and wide tolerances during on-site assembly, a system has been developed for simulating wind turbine assembly. This system enables digital wind turbine assembly by creating virtual and production process models and employing intelligent database analysis. It resolves the problem of the absence of pre-production for large-scale equipment, meets the batch production needs of the wind turbine manufacturing industry, enhances the safety of wind turbine operations, improves operator assembly skills, and boosts production efficiency. This platform has already been implemented in the wind turbine manufacturing industry, yielding significant economic benefits.
