Motors and Gearboxes for Wind Turbines Durable Environmentally Friendly Low Maintenance
Reliability in Many Areas ABM develops and manufactures innovative drive solutions of highest quality. As a single source manufacturer ABM can supply all drive components from motor to gearbox; these components are already being fine-tuned during the development phase. This way customized drive solutions for notable OEM’s of overhead cranes, textile machines, pallet trucks, biomass heating systems – and recently also for OEM’s for wind turbines are being developed. Innovation, durability, partnership and great flexibility are the guiding principle for our actions. 670 team members develop and manufacture over 300,000 drives annually. Six international subsidiaries and partners in all important industrialized countries guarantee a close contact to our customers around the world.
When Flexibility counts If your demands are more than what standard components provide, you arrived at the right address with ABM Greiffenberger. We are not guided by our product program in a partnership but follow your wishes and goals. Thereby we are exceptionally flexible – even if special requirements are requested.
From One Casting This motto can be taken literally: Aluminum housings for motors and gearboxes are manufactured in our own die cast operation. Even metaphorically we provide solutions from one casting: a complete drive solution that will not only satisfy you but also your customers.
Pitch Drives Pitch drives from ABM Greiffenberger are extremely robust and durable – exactly how the demanding application requires them to be. The combination of AC induction motor, multi-stage planetary gearbox and electro-magnetic brake results in a systems solution where all components have been fine-tuned. The outcome: A perfect drive system. co

but also powerful configuration software such as KISSOFT and the latest CAD programs. FEM analysis as validation of development results are a matter of course and such are customer specific tests in our well equipped test room. We configure your drive solutions according your individual requirements and this applies not only to output, speed and gear ratios. We are open to your recommendations even for design and protective finish. So for example drives with rightangle gearboxes are possible and offshore-versions can be delivered with saltwater-proof paint.

Our comprehensive drive program for wind turbines excels with silent running, high overload capacity and best efficiency. The drives meet the tough demands of wind turbine OEM’s on reliability and durability. They are designed for easy oil changes even in adverse conditions at the high altitudes of a wind turbine tower and they operate in temperatures down to -40° C.

Quality Starts with the Design ABM Greiffenberger is convinced that quality starts already at the time of establishing specifications and developing products. Hence the close cooperation already during preparation of product specification between our engineers and customers. For development the latest configuration software and CAD programs are being applied whose results are validated with FEM analysis. Even single gears of the gearbox are being designed for the harsh operating environment and long service life with special gearing software. This applies to planetary gears as well as case-hardened and subsequently hardmachined pinions. Furthermore, dynamometers are available for long-term test that will be conducted in close consultation with the customers. In manufacturing guarantee modern machine tools and realtime process controls best quality. Measuring machines such as a 3D-Coordinate Measuring Machine for a continuous inspection of manufactured components such as ring gears and housings are available.
