EDX
WIND TURBINES
Operational Demands
Power Transmission Core
Bearings support the main rotor shaft and gearbox to convert wind energy into electrical output.
Operate Under Stress
Low-speed but high-torque forces, axial loads, and shifting wind conditions constantly act on the system.
Friction & Alignment Control
Precise bearings maintain shaft integrity under combined loads and variable pitch angles.
Bearings Define Efficiency
Right bearings reduce gearbox failure rates, ensure uptime, and minimize costly tower-top servicing.

The Edx Advantages
Axial-Radial Load Balance
Supports main shafts under variable wind loads.
Insulated for Generator Safety
Prevents current damage in electrical paths.
Long-Term Grease Life
Designed for minimal service at tower height.
Corrosion-Protected Surfaces
Withstands offshore and humid environments.
Bearings integrated into Wind Turbines:
Spherical Roller Bearings
Carry axial and radial loads in main shaft
Tapered Roller Bearings
Used in yaw and gearbox sections
Insulated Bearings
Prevent current damage in generator units
