Why do they have the generator right at the top? It should be easy to bring a rotating shaft down to the bottom and generate the electricity there. Easier to build and maintain. And could probably build several for the price of 1 now.
Funny how they talk about how great whatever insert they were using is, but in the first shots of it @ 5:12, the outside corner of the insert is wiped out.
What part of making thousands of these things is green and net neutral, how much energy is required from mining to installation to end of life. Has anyone worked it out or is it one of those things we pretend isn't happening like everything else plant food reduction related.
You can slow down the video by clicking the "gear" icon at the bottom and then click "Playback Speed". Or just stop the video for a while by clicking on the picture. Click again to restart.
Nice, but please stop dubbing in fake sound bites from something that's totally unrelated. Keep it real. Gear hobbers don't sound anything like that first video segment showing the turning operation.
"All of that energy spent on something that'll never be able to produce enough to make up for it..." Please, your source of that very questionable information.
Yes! How can the initial cost, installation, and maintenance ever begin to provide a ROI. Just imagine the maintenance costs for those towers situated in the salt air.
current wind turbones does it within aproximately 2 years of operation. they are hugely effocient. those figures by the way was for the old ones (about 10 years) with a size of a bout 1.5 megawatt. the newer one at 9 on shore, and 16 off shore does it way, way faste than that.
So how long does it take to make up for the carbon footprint to build, ship and erect these damn ugly noisy things. I know. I live 2 10ths of a mile from them. Clang, bang, swooshing noise, can sound like a jet, also shadow flicker and stop rotate and stop again to rotate; poor efficiency; as well as trucks upon trucks to erect crane to repair turbine. Boy oh boy. Such bullshit.
@@trainnerd3029 2 years after. Was so peaceful before. Walk around my house enjoying my new blooms in spring, quiet. Bonfires at night, looking at the stars, quiet. Now constant machine, man made noise and believe me, it does not sound like wind blowing through the trees .
The energy spent on the forging of the gears... is the lynch pin in the entire process. Highly inefficient. Wind turbines should not exist. We need wind power without complicated moving assemblys. Turbines will be as obsolete as steam engines are today in a couple of generations.
Look at all the energy consumed and generated to make just one of these things that will last about five years if they are lucky. But for sure, it will not recover the power it took to ,ake it. Just a waste.
Excellent video. And thank you for providing the actual machining sound instead of annoying background music.
did you mean "thank you for providing two different sound clips and looping them forever"
@@michael001437 better than annoying music
No way is that a machining noise. Lol
It's very cool to see how a helical cutter is used to carve the gear teeth on the blank.😊
Нравиться вам звук обработки на токарном😂
На все ролики звук наложили😂
So eco friendly and dependable
l like it is good to see such marvel of the God gifted mind activity
How much energy and resources were needed to build one? Wowsa.
Enjoyed your video and so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Direct drive (no gearbox) is the only way to go. Less mechanical parts = more reliability = more time online and less maintenance costs.
Good luck trying to make any power from a generator doing 30 rpm...
@@hamstirrer6882 That's actually really easy, it just needs 240 poles for 60 Hz or 200 for 50 Hz.

@@KingdaTorohow big the generator that will be? Is it safe and economical to mounted on tower?

forging process seems like a good candidate for automation unless it lacks the volume, the parts change dimension frequently, or whatever.
So you got 2 different sound clips and are just looping them over and over again...
3:53 I noticed the end that isn't flat has covered itself in a whitish pale oxide
@@sjb3460 Yep the same is true about metals that produce a black oxide. In fact I've built things myself out of wood

Very eco-friendly and energy efficient indeed🙄
I bet there not using wind energy to do the process
What factory is this ? location

Well, yeah - unless you're using PCD on virgin Teflon, inserts wear and need to be replaced as needed.
WOW

Forging is done not so much to shape the part as to strengthen it by arranging the internal grain structure of the steel.

mech engnr without practicle knowledge is like "knife with no blade"
It is really shocking to actually see how these industrial giants are produced.
Wonder if wind is powering this plant and all of these processes including the induction furnaces. Sus

Payback generally within approx 1 year, lifespan average 20 years.
That gearbox will transmit a lot more joules than it took to make....
