18CrNiMo7-6 Fatigue-Resistant Alloy Steel Forgings for Wind Turbine Shafts are engineered to deliver outstanding performance under extreme cyclic loading conditions. Utilizing the premium-grade low-carbon alloy steel 18CrNiMo7-6, these forgings exhibit exceptional toughness, core strength, and fatigue resistance — ideal for the demanding load spectra found in wind turbine main shafts and rotor hubs.
The forging process incorporates controlled open-die forging techniques to ensure optimal grain orientation along the shaft’s load path, significantly enhancing the fatigue life and structural integrity of the component. Advanced quenching and tempering heat treatments are applied to achieve a refined microstructure, balanced mechanical properties, and uniform hardness across the section.
Each forging undergoes rigorous non-destructive and dimensional inspections, ensuring zero internal flaws and tight dimensional tolerances required for precision-fit assemblies. Custom machining, anti-corrosion surface treatments, and certified traceability can be provided to meet specific project needs.
