Root Solution

The beginning of any rotor blade development starts with a proper root solution. Besides the fact that it is the root of the blade that will connect the rotor blade to the hub, the root solution becomes more and more important when blade diameters increase in size.

Compared to conventional root designs, the SSP root is able to carry more load, is much shorter and therefore lighter. 
 
Advantages:

  • SSP has an innovative solution for root joint construction.
  • The SPP solution is reliable and thoroughly tested.
  • The root joint offers significant weight reductions of the rotor blade concept.
  • Implemented by the world’s leading wind turbine manufacturers.
  • Delivered as a key component manufactured under economies of scale.
  • High repeatability and minimal weight differences.
  • Use of pre-impregnated materials (prepreg) as a value added material.
