Infographics: the centrifugal pendulum-type absorber
The centrifugal pendulum-type absorber developed by LuK functions as a speed-adaptive mass damper and enables the full performance potential of modern drive systems to be exploited without sacrificing comfort.
The four radial and four axial hydraulic cylinders (right-hand side of the picture), which generate the real loads and moments that occur in a wind turbine. The radial cylinders simulate the weight of a rotor hub with rotor blades while the axial cylinders generate the wind loads.
Shortening development times and making the design process of wind turbines more reliable: The world’s largest, most up-to-date and most powerful large-size bearing test stand enables large-size bearings of up to 15 tons and measuring up to 3.5 meters such as those used in wind power applications in particular to be tested in realistic conditions using a comprehensive simulation program.
