Case Study 02
Smarter Wind Turbine Maintenance Case Study
Blade bearing degradation in existing wind turbines was a significant issue, with no prior testing performed.

By using Livetest’s BlueDial to measure the blade pitching bearing run out on a 30-meter blade length, maintenance operators could quantify the bearing condition.

This improvement allowed for data-driven decisions, preventing unnecessary and costly bearing replacements. As a result, maintenance operators could determine if bearings were still within tolerances, providing a quantifiable basis for maintenance decisions and avoiding unnecessary expenses.
