Case Summary

During the construction of a wind power plant in Liaocheng, Shandong, a batch of alloy steel forgings needed to be purchased for key transmission components. This wind power project is located in an inland monsoon region, where high requirements are placed on the strength, fatigue resistance, and long-term stability of the forgings. As a forging supplier, Jianing Forging undertook the custom production task for this alloy steel forging.

Customer pain points

During preliminary research, the wind farm found that some conventional forgings are prone to fatigue cracks, surface wear, and insufficient dimensional stability after long-term high-load operation. Additionally, wind farm operation and maintenance conditions are limited, requiring forgings to have good maintainability and long replacement cycles, while strictly controlling costs. These pain points directly affect the overall reliability and operational efficiency of wind power equipment.

Product advantages

To address these pain points, Jianing Forging offers customized alloy steel forging solutions. By optimizing alloy ratios and forging processes, the tensile strength, yield strength, and impact toughness of the forgings are systematically improved. At the same time, the use of fine die forging technology helps the internal structure of the product to be dense and streamlined, effectively reducing the risk of stress concentration. According to third-party testing, this batch of forgings maintains stable dimensions and performance even after simulating long-term alternating loads, meeting the wind power plant's usage needs throughout their design life. In addition, Jianing Forging has also applied surface reinforcement treatment, further improving wear resistance and corrosion resistance, reducing maintenance frequency and costs later.
