Efficient and safe hydraulic bolting for the wind industry
Published in: Wind, Talking Point, Exclusive Articles

As wind energy continues to grow, the need for efficient and safe turbine maintenance becomes more urgent. Service teams face numerous challenges, including difficult access to turbine components and the need for reliable, high-torque tools.
The expansion of wind power is a critical element in the global transition toward renewables. Governments worldwide, including Germany, have set ambitious targets for increasing the capacity of wind energy. To meet these goals, the construction of wind turbines is being accelerated, which places increasing demands on the service departments of turbine manufacturers and specialized service providers.
As the scale of wind energy infrastructure grows, the need for efficient, safe, and cost-effective maintenance solutions becomes more pressing. Wind turbines are complex, high-performance systems that require regular maintenance to ensure operational reliability and structural integrity. One of the most critical aspects of turbine maintenance is the inspection and securing of bolted connections, which are subjected to extreme mechanical stress during operation.
