International wind turbine bearing giant "shares" China's fan manufacturing market

Timken signed an order of 26 million U.S. dollars with Goldwind Technology in 2010 and set up a joint venture company with Hunan Electric Co., Ltd. to produce ultra-large fan bearings. The United States intends to carry out the 301 survey on China in the field of new energy. However, the importance of U.S. companies to the development of the Chinese wind energy market has only increased.

One of the three largest bearing manufacturers in the world and the head of Timken, the largest bearing manufacturer in North America, recently told the author that there may be some controversies between the governments, but Timken pays great attention to the development of the Chinese wind energy market and participates in China. In the future growth of wind energy companies, we will always focus on long-term customers and continue to achieve business growth.

China Wind Power Association once predicted that the installed capacity of wind power will reach 247.8 million kilowatts by 2020. The development of the wind energy industry has led to the development of wind turbines from kilowatts to megawatts and even megawatts. With the increasing size and power of fans, bearings on the fan's main shaft and gearbox are becoming one of the key factors in fan performance.

As the world's largest manufacturer of tapered roller bearings, Timken has been involved in the wind energy industry since the 1970s, but in the 1990s it gradually moved away from the field. Today, the company has returned to the wind energy market. This change is particularly evident in the Chinese market.

“When we first came to China, we mainly entered the automotive equipment field. Wind power is an industry that we have recently entered and focused on in the past few years.” At the Timken 2010 China Technology Summit, the company’s president and CEO James Griffiths said that Chinese wind turbines are the largest growth market for industrial bearings produced by Timken, and he has confidence in China's wind industry.
