World's Largest Wind Turbine
Generates New Large-Shaft Bearing Technology
Bearing technology key component to solving
world’s energy demands
Sweden-based SKF Group’s design of
a bearing system for a giant wind turbine with an unusual
rotor shaft led to the development of the largest-known CARB®
toroidal roller bearing system, as well as to advances in
bearing assembly techniques and axial fixation methodology
for large bearings.
