General overhaul of electronic components
It is not uncommon for wind turbines failures to be caused by electronic faults. It is often necessary to replace components of the electronic system before the plant can be reconnected to the grid network.
Our experts in controlling and power electronics are specialised in the maintenance and repair of the electronics in wind turbines. The general overhauls they perform on electronic assemblies represent an economical and reliable alternative to new parts all over the world.
To keep our delivery times short and ensure we are able to work independently of third-party providers, we overhaul subassemblies and produce them ourselves. Moreover, we develop technical upgrades to counter weaknesses in the design process. This allows us to work independently and results in cost reductions.

Faults in the electronic component assemblies are often the cause of downtime. They therefore have a direct influence on the technical availability of the wind turbine. However, simply repairing the damaged component does not always offer a long-term guarantee. For this reason, our repair concept is based on a comprehensive general overhaul, with the specific goal of improving reliability.
We offer our customers a two-year guarantee on our components that have undergone a general overhaul. For this reason, our repaired products represent a real alternative to expensive new parts.
In principle, we not only supply generally overhauled electronic components but rather support our customers with all issues around the installation and the operation of component assemblies.
We offer the following product groups:

In addition to classic reconditioning, we also develop our own solutions. This allows us to achieve increasing independence from parts manufacturers with regards to the availability of goods and prices. We win over our customers with the quality, efficient operation and, not least, economic efficiency of our innovative product developments in the areas of converter, measurement and tool technology.
The development work is characterised by exchanges based on actual practice within the Deutsche Windtechnik Group and our discussions with customers and partners. Your needs, wishes and ideas inspire us to take new paths.
The following three especially successful products are examples of our developments:
We would be happy to provide details on other in-house developments upon request.

The electronics used in the wind turbines frequently represent a “black box” as the documentation on the component assembly is primarily kept by the manufacturer. Our reverse engineering (RE) department not only makes it possible for us to reconstruct and reproduce different components. Over and above this, our goal is to significantly increase the lifespan of the component through a new design and by utilising the latest technology.
During RE work, our engineers and technicians systematically analyse the electronic component produced by the manufacturer. When all required information has been extracted, the component that has been examined can now be reconstructed. In the process, the duplicated component is first a one-to-one copy of the original in its properties and its use. A successful complete function test under simulated operating conditions completes the development process.
The data collected and evaluated within the scope of the product analysis makes it possible for us to further develop the component in order to improve it. For example, the component assemblies are frequently no longer state-of-the-art when it comes to performance and durability.
We exchange the components to which this applies by more powerful components. This preventive approach to repair work with the goal of improving performance is what makes us stand out clearly from other providers of repair services.
As we carry out the reconditioning according to industrial standards, we have committed to documenting the work steps and results for every single component assembly.

We not only supply generally overhauled electronic components but also support our customers in all areas related to the installation and operation of component assemblies.
We also carry out assessment tasks on the electronics, for example, we create expert assessment reports on damage for insurance purposes.
Give us a ring. We would be happy to advise you.
