Renewable Energy: Lenses For The 3D Measurement Of Rotor Blades

GettyImages-1454127858 wind energy

The use of special lenses for 3D measurement not only allows precise measurement of rotor blade shape and size, but also covers important aspects such as strain and deformation measurements. These features are critical for a full understanding of structural integrity in rotor blade manufacturing. This is the only way to ensure that rotor blades have the desired aerodynamic properties, are not damaged, and that wind turbines can operate properly. 

Another application for the lenses is surface inspection of rotor blades. This is necessary to ensure that the surface is free of cracks and other damage. 3D measurement with special lenses helps to improve the quality of wind turbines and extend the life of the rotors. This can reduce the production costs of wind turbines, contributing to sustainable energy production in the long term.
