SKF Wind will be showcasing a wide range of solutions, as well as demonstrating its uniquely informative content hub for the wind power industry, at this year's WindEurope exhibition and conference, which takes place during November in Amsterdam.
Among the key products on show this year will be SKF’s Multilog Condition Monitoring System IMx8, an innovative eight-channel version of the highly popular Multilog IMx machine health monitoring system platform and SKF’s most compact, easy-to-use machine health monitoring tool to date. The IMx-8 is Internet-enabled, providing remotely accessible machine health data in real time for expert analysis.

SKF will also be showing SKF Enlight Data Collect, which enables you to perform and share inspection, process and machine health data, company wide. Inspection routines are managed in the SKF Cloud and can seamlessly accessed through the Data Collect app. It’s easy to get started with low entry level setup costs. Typical use cases in wind industry are inspection routines for turbines, audits, basic condition monitoring with bluetooth vibration sensor and many more.

Also on display will be SKF’s latest spherical roller bearings for wind turbine main shafts, a design adaptation of SKF's existing heavy duty bearings that features a significant weight reduction, optimised internal geometry and improved lubrication capabilities to ensure lower contact pressures and enhanced load carrying capacity.

In addition to showcasing its all-encompassing and proven sector capabilities at this year's WindEurope exhibition and conference, SKF will also take the opportunity afforded by this major European wind power event to demonstrate its unique online Wind Farm Management Blog, which supports customers with key industry insights and knowledge on trends, challenges, and innovations. The Wind Farm Management Blog is regularly updated with articles on maintenance, operations and technology issues, plus general news relating to the wind power industry.

Visitors to the booth will also discover more about SKF’s new large-size bearing test facility, which was inaugurated this year in Schweinfurt, Germany. The €40m Sven Wingquist Test Centre is the first of its kind in the world that is able to test large size bearings under actual operating conditions.
