Apply precise, high-force static loading at multiple points along full-scale wind turbine blades to perform stiffness and strength tests required for FEM model validation and certification to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Technical Specification 61400-23. These turnkey solutions employ robust, impact-worthy hydraulic winch and linear actuation technologies capable of testing blades to 150% rated load or failure.
State-of-the-art controls, data acquisition and application software comprise an efficient, high-fidelity test and simulation environment
Configurable for both horizontal and vertical pull static tests
Employs fatigue-rated actuator assemblies and winches sized for 50% overload
Winch and actuator assembly control manifolds feature low-flow/low-pressure manual modes for test setup
