Video endoscopy for offshore wind turbines

Condition assessment under offshore conditions — targeted, non-destructive, reliable

Offshore wind turbines are difficult to access, subject to high loads — and extremely costly to repair in the event of damage. This is precisely why early detection of damage to critical components is crucial.

Since 2004, 8.2 has been using cutting-edge video endoscopy to specifically examine the interior areas of technical systems — efficiently, non-destructively and with minimal intervention in the operational process. The method is ideal for offshore plants where dismantling and replacement logistics are particularly complex.

Areas of use under maritime conditions

Our offshore experts use high-resolution camera technology to inspect the following components:

• Gearbox cavities
• Large roller bearings
• Generators
• Rotor blade balancing chambers
• Bulkhead adhesions and interior structures

The inspections provide reliable insights for operational management, maintenance strategy and investment decisions — without downtime and without dismantling.
