EURAMET Met4Wind training course - 3D gear surface measurement development for wind turbines

Date: 3rd August 2023

Time: 9:15am - 12pm

Platform: TEAMS

Fee: Free to all

About the seminar

Developments in measurement technology now enable us to measure the 3D surfaces of gears, but how do we use the results? This short seminar will update you on research work undertaken in the EURAMET funded Met4Wind project and provide some suggestions. The methods are generic and applicable to all gear applications.

The sessions are pre-recorded so you can go through the material at your own pace reviewing or skipping material as required. A live Q&A session with the presenters will follow and we will also discuss future development plans . A PDF copy of the presentations will be available after the event those who register.
