Pitch and azimuth gears for wind turbines
Pitch and azimuth gears are based on smaller planetary gears with matching geared components. Skiving is the ideal method for flexible and at the same time cost-effective soft machining of the gears. On the PITTLER SkiveLine (component diameter up to 630 mm), skiving can also be combined with other processes, for example, turning. Particularly when it comes to the internal gearing of ring gears, there is no better technology than skiving.
Our services:
- Skiving in combination with turning, grinding, drilling, and milling
- Turning, internal and external cylindrical grinding
For components such as:
- planetary wheels, ring gears, bevel gears
- Gear shafts
