Weidmuller USA Unveils New Bolt Monitoring System for Wind Blades

Weidmuller USA recently introduced BOLTcontrol, a monitoring system that detects broken bolts or studs in the wind blade root that connects to the hub. BOLTcontrol will alert operators immediately of any issues.
With BOLTcontrol, broken bolts are held securely in place with detection plates, which prevents consequential damage that would result if the pieces fell into the hub and ricocheted as it rotated. By continuously monitoring the rotor blade bolts, BOLTcontrol minimizes downtime, reduces repair costs and ensures the safe uninterrupted operation of the turbine.
“The bolted connections between the hub and rotor blade are constantly subjected to dynamic loads in a wind turbine,” said Pete Tecos, director of new energy solutions at Weidmuller USA. “Stud and bolt failures have become more common, and BOLTcontrol not only alerts operators to blade root fastener failures, but also prevents the fractured components from falling into the hub, thereby avoiding costly damages to pitch systems and other critical components.”
