As a solution provider, Parker helps its customers to achieve increased
productivity and profitability by developing efficient and reliable systems
that are custom-made for practically any application in the wind power
industry. Creativity, know-how and experience are crucial to the success of
applications with hydraulic, electromechanical and pneumatic drive and control
systems.
Working in partnership with customers in the early development stages of
a project, engineers develop integrated systems that go beyond just components
and assemblies. Parker employs dedicated teams around the world to support its
customers in designing systems for the most demanding requirements and offers
incomparable global availability of genuine Parker products and service.
Through integrated solutions and globally synchronised services, such as
kanban, kitting and pre-assembly, the wind turbine manufacturer benefits from

significantly easier procurement process. Unique design features, such as
increased efficiency, shorter downtimes and lower maintenance costs boost
profitability.
As well as hydraulic
power packs, electromechanical blade-pitch control systems, brake systems,
pumps and motors, hydraulic valves, quick-release couplings, energy storage
devices, inverter systems, fittings, hoses, filters, submarine cables and
measuring instruments, Parker designs complete systems, such as for the
filtration and cooling of the wind turbine gearboxes.
