Technical advantages
The use of our VPI technology ensures that the preformed coils have a consistently high insulation strength. The rotor design of double-fed generators generally comprises medium-voltage coils and high rates of voltage rise in converter operation.
Our good vertical range of manufacture, which includes the construction of steel housings, enables us to respond quickly and flexibly to your requirements. The main slip and earthing slip rings are generally made of stainless steel, enabling VEM wind power generators to operate without problems in coastal areas or offshore. Redundant earthing systems, combined with specially developed bearing insulation, also ensure safe control of the converter operation.
