Wind Blades
Detectable Defects
The mechanical properties of laminates used for wind blades depend on:
-
Presence and type of delaminations.
-
Correct bonding of different parts.
-
Homogeneity of laminate thickness.
-
Fiber compaction in the laminate.
-
Homogeneity of mechanical properties throughout the structure.
-
Presence of extraneous inclusions in the laminate.
Q.I. developed a wide range of tests that address each of the specific issues listed above.
Inspection in the construction yard
The range of tests that Q.I. performs on the construction site typically include:
-
Assessment of product quality.
-
Mapping of defect type and size.
-
Case-specific assessment of defect causes and history.
-
Creation of a database of inspected structures.
As a result, we can help you IDENTIFY SYSTEMATIC FLAWS in the production process.
On site inspection
Inspections can also be performed directly in wind farms, aiming at:
-
Product monitoring.
-
Failure prevention.
