Covering all torque rangesThe prevailing trend in the wind power industry toward ever more powerful, reliable, and available turbines under challenging operating conditions requires a novel modular approach and advanced digital solutions.

The dynamic nature of the wind power market calls for continuous and rapid development to deliver produc-tive, reliable and cost-effective turbines.

ZF is committed to delivering gearbox solutions that can handle the torque growth-curve induced in the drive train as turbine platforms are being equipped with larger rotors. ZF invests heavily in research and development of technologies and concepts to increase torque density, enabling torque increase within the same outer gearbox dimensions. Thanks to digitaliza-tion, ZF connected gearboxes can automatically sense the best way to optimize energy generation and improve turbine economics for any wind site condition.

Coupled with its reliable product portfolio and the abil-ity to provide worldwide service and maintenance, ZF is the technology partner of choice in the wind power industry.

Leading wind turbinegearbox technologyWith expertise in both automotive and industrial technology, ZF is determined to support its customers in making wind power the most attractive renewable energy source for the future.

How do customers benefit from ZF wind turbine gearboxes?

• More than seven decades of cumulative know-how in the wind power industry and long-term partnerships with the world’s leading suppliers of wind turbine gearbox components and with wind turbine manu-facturers and operators, enable ZF Wind Power to confidently meet any challenge customers may face.

• With a long tradition of innovation, ZF Wind Power differentiates itself in the marketplace by means of quality and reliability in customized solutions for different concepts used by its customers in their markets: Integrated, Conventional, High Speed and Medium Speed.
