Onshore Wind Turbine Coating Machine

Onshore Wind Turbine Coating Machine

Zhenyu Technology onshore wind power tower automatic spraying equipment. The equipment is divided into inner wall equipment and outer wall equipment. The inner wall equipment is mainly composed of a spraying host, a touch screen operation part and a wireless operation part. The outer wall equipment needs to be attached with a track. Both devices control the operation of the equipment through software. It can automatically spray different types of wind power tower, save labor and paint, and accurately control the film thickness.

The Challenges Facing Wind Turbine Coatings

The Challenges Facing Wind Turbine Coatings

  • Corrosion

     In the highly corrosive environments necessary for the most effective wind turbines, corrosion is a big problem. Sub-sea structures, splash zones, and the salt spray in the wind itself all present difficulties for the stability and strength of a wind turbine. Coatings need to provide the highest degree of corrosion protection.

  • Leading edge erosion

    The front edge of a wind turbine blade is subject to constant impact from airborne projectiles such as rain, ice, salt, or sand. The blade tip on a large turbine can reach speeds of 80m/s as it rotates, and pitting, delamination, and cosmetic failures form, compromising the blade’s integrity and developing into total blade failure. This ‘leading edge erosion’ is one of the biggest issues facing wind turbine coatings.

  • High maintenance costs

    Damage from rain and sand can reduce a turbine’s energy output by 20% a year. A turbine may be in continuous operation for 15 years and the coatings need to provide around the clock protection.  The scale and location of these structures makes maintenance and accessibility a highly expensive task. The best coatings aim to be maintenance free for their lifetime.

How To Protect Wind Turbines From Corrosion?

Turbines are subject to corrosion because they are often exposed to the air and water. For instance, offshore wind turbines are exposed to very harsh marine conditions. The corrosion that occurs because of this can damage the electrical system and other areas of the turbine, so prevention from corrosion damage is essential to keep the turbine working.


Many turbines are placed in coastal regions because of the stronger winds in these regions, which allow the turbine to function better. Because of this, corrosion control is paramount; otherwise, the turbine parts will need to be frequently treated and replaced.


The methods used for turbine prevention against corrosion depend on the areas being affected. Some of the methods of corrosion control for turbine preservation of the area exposed to the air include spraying the susceptible areas with thermal spray. Often these thermal sprays make use of zinc primers in order to prevent corrosion. Silicone resin is also useful for turbine preservation. Epoxy paints also can create a protective barrier on the turbines. Polyurethane coating is beneficial as well because it can prevent moisture from accumulating if the coating has no solvents in it.  These methods can be used in order to protect the turbine’s splash zone, for boilers and condensers preservation, and for the preservation of navigation rooms.
