Wind technology

With the WinDrive, Voith Turbo offers wind turbine manufacturers an innovative drive train component that converts a broad range of input speeds into constant output speed. This makes it possible to use reliable synchronous generators at mid-voltage level to generate electricity.

WinDrive
  • Variable-speed, hydrodynamic gearbox
  • Variable input speeds from the wind rotor
  • Constant output speeds to the generator

Main WinDrive components:
  • Planetary gearing (superimposed gearing)
  • Hydrodynamic torque converter

Main components of wind turbine drive train:
  • Wind rotor
  • Main shaft
  • Main gear box
  • WinDrive
  • Generator

Power range: Up to 8 MW

Input speed : variable > 300 rpm
Speed control : > 50%
Output speed : 1500 rpm (50 Hz)
    1800 rpm (60 Hz)
