Moog Industrial Group has developed a new electric pitch system that is applicable for both onshore and offshore wind power applications.
The system features Moog's new AC synchronous electromagnetic brushless servo motor, as well as the company's pitch servo drive and backup systems. The technology has been designed to withstand extreme temperatures, vibrations and humidity, the company adds.
‘The AC brushless technology is designed to be a very high-performance system with lower maintenance costs,’ says Mauro Gnecco, business development manager for wind energy at Moog.
