Lubrication Systems.

Ensuring a Well-Oiled Machine.

Lubrication and filtration systems are used on wind turbines with a gearbox in the main drivetrain. In order to ensure long and trouble-free operation of the gearbox, it is vital to ensure that the oil is clean and at the correct temperature. In many cases, the lubrication system also acts as the reservoir for the gearbox oil. We customize our solutions to ensure a smooth integration into the nacelle infrastructure – always with a focus on performance, reliability and ease of service.

Lubrication Pump Unit.

The lubrication pump unit has many functions. High reliability is a natural part of our design criteria, and we pay special attention to a service- friendly solution that is neatly integrated into the nacelle infrastructure. Our lubrication systems are designed to meet the specifications of our customers while ensuring optimum performance and perfect operating conditions for your gearbox. The lubrication pump also includes a cooling solution for the oil, with an easy interface and oil-conserving design.

Plate Heat Exchanger.

The correct temperature of the gearbox oil is important in order to ensure a long and trouble-free turbine life. We design and manufacture tailor-made plate heat exchangers to match your application needs, using aluminum to minimize weight. Our design and simulation tools ensure an effective solution both in terms of performance and total costs.

Filter Elements.

The right combination of filters is vital in order to ensure a long life for the gearbox oil. Our filter elements can be made with different materials and features to optimize performance. If needed, we can add built-in by-pass valves in order to facilitate the installation and to make the overall design more compact. We have a large range of possible options available and work in close cooperation with our customers to pinpoint the optimum solution.

Calculation
To Find the Best Solutions, We Look Into the Future.
Based on our extensive application knowledge and thermodynamic expertise, we have developed Seidr – a state-of-the-art calculation tool that models the behavior of fans, liquids, materials, headers and more. This helps us create a first, optimized layout before we
start modeling.
3D-model
A First Look at Something Really Cool.
After getting agreement on our layout, we begin modeling the design in exact detail. After we’ve thoroughly examined the 3D-model, it’s sent to you – no more than one week after the agreement is finalized.
Production drawings
Getting Down to the Nitty Gritty.
After your agreement, the final design is broken up into detailed production drawings to enable manufacturing of each individual part. With a complete bill of materials, it’s time to start production.
Component production
Making Sure There is No Weakest Link.
All parts included in the complete BOM of the final product are manufactured. Either internally in our own production facilities – we have full control of the production chain with capacity for aluminum matrix and steel production – or by handpicked and approved suppliers that meet our high demands on quality and delivery times.
Prototype assembly
Ready for Testing.
Every new product will pass a prototype assembly where both production and design thoroughly evaluate the prototype to ensure that all design and customer specifications are met or exceeded.

Ymer Technology’s wind division is acquired by HydraSpecma. The transaction will strengthen the position as a supplier to the wind industry.

Ymer Technology’s wind division that develops and manufactures cooling systems for on- and off- shore wind turbines has been acquired by the Power and Motion company, HydraSpecma. With the transaction HydraSpecma strengthen its position as leading supplier within the wind industry.

With the acquisition of Ymer Technology’s wind division, the international Power & Motion company HydraSpecma headquartered in Skjern, Denmark is becoming an even stronger supplier and development partner to the wind industry. The two companies have recently settled an agreement which will increase strength and capacity to accept even more projects within the wind power segment.

HydraSpecma, that is owned by the Danish industrial conglomerate Schouw & Co, has acquired Ymer Technology’s wind division that is headquartered in Silkeborg, Denmark. HydraSpecma sees a great potential in the wind industry the upcoming years and the two companies will complement each other in multiple areas. HydraSpecma is specialized in lubrication- and filtration systems and pitch-hydraulic, while Ymer Technology have cooling and conditioning of nacelles as their primary business area.

The goal, to achieve an even stronger position in the market has also played a significant role for Ymer Technology Jørgen Krogh, Vice President of Ymer Technology explains. In few years, Ymer Technology has established a robust customer portfolio due to the company’s expertise, especially within cooling systems for wind turbines.

– Through a close cooperation with our customers we have taken significant steps within development. We have gone from being a component supplier to co-developer of systems to some of the largest OEM customers. Now the time has come to take the next large step. The winds of change are blowing within the wind industry and to stand even stronger in that process I see Ymer Technology and HydraSpecma as the perfect match, says Jørgen Krogh.

HydraSpecma have been collaborating with the leading wind turbine manufactures in more than 40 years and are experiencing and increasing demand with the wind power segment.
