It is critical to a seamless installation that every component of a wind turbine is built to exact specifications. Given the large scale of some of the parts, obtaining accurate 3D data can be a difficult, time consuming task.
Portable CMM tools from FARO, such as the FARO ScanArm or FARO Laser Tracker, can be used for 3D inspection of towers, turbine hubs and rotor blades before they are shipped to the installation site and help to eliminate costly rework during installation.
