Wind turbine maintenance

LE is working with wind industry OEMs, service companies and increasing numbers of wind turbine operators globally to help solve maintenance problems. Most wind turbine gearbox failures are preventable and are the result of poor lubrication. With proper lubrication and contamination control, LE is helping to reduce the number of damaged wind turbines, resulting in significant savings for the turbine owners. We are also helping to grow the profits for the owners of healthy wind turbines by promoting preventative maintenance. For more information on LE's wind turbine maintenance please click here.
