How to automate the manufacture of wind turbines.

In any case, it is possible to produce all cables and hoses for the wind turbine automatically.

Is the production of a wind mill manual work?

As far as cables and hoses are concerned, that doesn't have to be the case. Metzner offers machines with which all, really all cables and hoses can be processed in a windmill. Each machine offers a very wide range of processing options

What can be automated in the manufacture of a wind mill turbine?

The entire processing of all cables, hoses and seals of a wind mill turbine can be automated. Metzner supplies all machines from a single source.

PRECISE CUTTING TECHNOLOGY FOR HIGH DEMANDS

Automated hose and cable production for wind turbines

Metzner has been impressing turbine manufacturers with its automation technology for as long as there have been wind turbines. Metzner offers a wide range of machines for cutting hoses, which have to meet special requirements in terms of temperature resistance and material quality due to their use. It makes no difference whether you want to automatically cut hoses for gearbox cooling systems, hydraulic brake systems, rotor blade adjustment or any other part of the wind turbine.

Secondly, the Metzner AM 5000 models and the Ramatech Speedy enable automated processing of the cables required in wind turbines. Metzner is your competent partner with many years of industry experience in both areas.

The range includes various models. The Metzner KL-BV is always used when the hose needs to be cut precisely and with minimal tolerances, but must not be exposed to high pressure. Knives from 0.1 mm | ³/₆₄” thickness are used for this purpose, which are also set at an angle so that the impact on the hose is minimal. The Metzner MBS is ideal for the construction of wind turbines because it has an answer to the wide range of tasks in the industry.This machine can process not only hoses, but also unreinforced hoses and profiles of any shape up to 390 x 80 mm | 1’3″ x 3″. Each machine can also be equipped with two tools at the same time. Tools can be equipped and also retrofitted if your tasks change. Metzner is also able to adapt standard machines or develop and build machines for your individual tasks. The Metzner MBS is also a modular system. You can combine 140 different modules as you wish.

One machine - 10,000 combination possibilities

The universal cutting machines ST-OB and Variocut can, as the name suggests, cut various materials to the right size. They differ fundamentally in terms of operation. The Variocut impresses with its simple operation and automated process, in which the material is always fed to the blade with the same pneumatic pressured.

The ST-OB, on the other hand, is always the right choice when the operator needs to make fine adjustments. The pressure can be set precisely using a rotary knob. The skilled operator can even react to slight differences in the material batches.

The Metzner AM 5000 range is designed for cables up to 35 mm | 1.38″ diameter and 185 mm² | 350 MCM cross section, the Ramatech Speedy Models, on the other hand, can cut and strip diameters up to 40 mm | 1.57″ and cross-sections up to 400 mm² | 750 MCM.

Both the Metzner AM 5800 and the Metzner AM 5850 with rotary cutting head impress with their complete software equipment as standard and the double blade cutting system, for more versatility in one pass. Both models are also designed for a cutting force of up to 185 mm² as standard. There are no additional costs.

Cutting power up to 400 mm² | 750 MCM

The Speedy was specially developed by our sister company Ramatech for cables that are difficult to process. Thanks to the hydraulic cutting unit, cables with a high copper content can be cut and stripped just as easily as cross-sections up to 400 mm² | 750 MCM. Naturally, suitable printers and peripherals are available for both models. .
