Parts for tower and nacelle
As the machine centre, the nacelle is often considered the technical heart of a wind turbine. Carried by the tower, it contains many components from generator to gear that an operator must be able to rely on. Constructors therefore need reliable parts and materials for construction. We support you in this with our plastics. They convince, among others, with low weight at high strength, high corrosion resilience or good sliding properties. Thus, they offer benefits as compared to traditional materials, and help you construct reliable towers and nacelles.

- High efficiency
- High operating safety
- Low-maintenance
- Avoiding a slip-stick effect
Typical areas of application
- Onshore wind turbines
- Offshore wind turbines
- Small wind turbines

Arrange technical advice
The performance and reliability of materials for the tower and nacelle are influenced by a variety of factors. These criteria need to be considered in order to make the right choice. Examples:
- Mechanical stress
- Thermal stress
- Outer influences such as UV radiation and weather
- Contact with lubricants and corrosive salt water
- Sliding partner
- Constructional requirements, dimensions and tolerances
