Refurbishment

Refurbishment of Yaw Gears for the Wind Industry

Refurbishing yaw gears is a strategic choice that ensures high uptime, reliable operation, and extended lifetime of wind turbines. At BJ-Gear A/S, we do more than just repair – we create value through short delivery times, documented quality, and a flexible service program customized to your specific needs.

Why choose BJ-Gear?

Short delivery time – maximum uptime

We manufacture key components in-house and keep essential wear parts such as seals, O-rings, and bearings in stock. This enables us to carry out repairs quickly, ensuring yaw gears are returned to service with minimal downtime. For the wind farm operator, this means turbines spend more hours producing electricity, generating higher revenue from the same asset and making refurbishment a sound and profitable investment.

Tiered service program – adapted to your gear

Our service program is divided into levels based on the actual wear or damage of each gear. With more than 60 years of experience as a gearbox manufacturer, we can accurately assess requirements and ensure refurbishment is carried out with the right scope – efficient and reliable.

Clear documentation – full transparency

Through our service app, you receive a detailed report on the condition of each yaw gear upon arrival, the components replaced, and the refurbishment performed. This gives you full transparency and enables precise planning of operations and maintenance.

Strategic partner – more than just a supplier

BJ-Gear is not only a service provider but also a long-term partner. With over six decades of expertise in gear design and modern production technology, we are well-equipped to deliver reliable, sustainable, and future-ready refurbishment solutions for the wind industry.

Sustainability and economy in one solution

Refurbishment extends the lifetime of existing gears, reduces resource consumption, and minimizes waste – benefitting both your operating costs and the environment.

To document every step of the yaw gear refurbishment process, we use a service app. We follow a detailed process where each gear damage and repair is well documented both in writing and with photo documentation.

When it comes to yaw gear repairs, we follow a streamlined timeline from a repair-ready product to a well-documented test report. We document every point in the process.

We offer both purchased and in-house manufactured spare parts of the highest quality. With our own modern production facilities, we can deliver special components tailored to individual needs.

Refurbishment will typically be in 3 levels – standard, medium or extended
