Frequently Asked Questions

Blade studs secure the blades to the hub. Broken studs compromise structural integrity, increase vibration, and risk catastrophic failure, making timely repair essential for safety and energy production.

Signs include excessive vibration, unusual hub noise, blade misalignment, or visible cracks and corrosion at attachment points. Condition monitoring systems may also detect abnormal stress or torque on blades.

Yes. Most repairs are performed on-tower using rope access or platforms, allowing safe and fast replacement without removing the blade or shutting down the entire turbine for extended periods.

Minor repairs typically take 1–2 hours per stud, depending on accessibility and number of damaged studs. Complex or multiple stud replacements may take longer but are optimized for minimal turbine downtime.

We use high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel or OEM-specified studs to ensure durability, safety, and compliance with manufacturer standards.

Yes. Damaged studs can compromise blade security, which may trigger automatic shutdowns for safety reasons. Prompt repair prevents unplanned downtime and maintains operational efficiency.

Absolutely. After stud replacement, we perform vibration analysis, torque verification, and hub alignment checks to confirm secure attachment and safe operation.

Depending on OEM policies, repairs may be covered if performed according to manufacturer guidelines. Our documentation and certified repair methods support warranty compliance and insurance claims.
