Lyndhurst Precision Engineering, based in Chorley, is in demand in the wind turbine industry for its reverse engineering expertise to resolve faulty and obsolete components, as well as its ability to manufacture new components from basic drawings
Following an approach from Elland based, Turbine Engineering Developments Ltd Lyndhurst, has been commissioned to reverse engineer and manufactured some new components to prevent future failure of the wind turbines.
The project will also require their engineering specialists to carry out detailed stress analysis and potential redesigns to create prototypes that will be used at wind turbines sites across the UK.
Mark Marriner, Managing Director, Lyndhurst Precision Engineering, said: “This prestigious project will enable us to utilise our vast reverse engineering experience gained in the nuclear industry and apply the same stringent quality requirements to the renewable energy sector. The project will draw upon all areas of our in-house precision machining and fabrication skills and manufacturing techniques.
“This is another exciting development for us at Lyndhurst, since we relish a challenge. This project and other similar projects will hopefully result in us increasing our team of skilled engineers and machinists.”
