Fresh momentum in wind power. The right product for your wind energy application.
/ When offshore wind development in Germany picked up in 2010 with the commissioning of alpha ventus, experienced experts and pioneers in the industry were few and far between. Sensing the need to expand its expertise into this new market, leading international consultant Deutsche WindGuard set out to change the game. /

As LEINE LINDE SYSTEMS with our focus on renewable energy we are existing nearly 6 years with our head office in Hamburg. Our mother company Dr. JOHANNES HEIDENHAIN exist already since several decades providing sensors, actors and PLCs to various industries. Within the HEIDENHAIN Group, LEINE LINDE SYSTEMS bundles the Group's expertise in the matter of wind.

In the early days of the wind energy market we started already to provide speed feedback encoders to mount on wind turbine generators. Since then our understanding of wind turbines and its specific requirements has grown year by year. Now after several years within the market we are equipping more and more turbines with several components like speed and position encoders, slip rings, temperature and humidity sensors and so on. Since 5 years now we have started to even more increase our share per turbine in starting developing system solutions.The outcome is our EMS Elongation Measurement System which can provide load and pre-analyzed data from relevant structural components such as the rotor blades, the machine frame and the tower.

Due to our wide product range we also have a wide range of target customers groups. Our main target group is the OEM and their suppling companies to equip the wind energy turbine serial production. But we also aim for other target groups, e.g. companies which are offering service and replacement for turbines in the field, companies which are offering measurement campaigns where our new ESR Elongation Sensor series fits perfectly to and also the owners respectively operators of turbines find warms.

Many of our products have already been successfully operating in wind turbines for many years. In these installations, barely any two products are the same. This is because each one is produced, adapted or refined especially to meet the wishes of the client. And then there are also the solutions which nobody has yet thought about and which allow us to provide new impulses for the industry.

Latest development is our EMS Elongation Measurement System where the ESR Elongation Sensor belongs to. A sensor system which can be used for serial integration but also measurement campaigns in wind turbine rotor blade, machine frame and the tower.
In parallel we have launched a functional safe sensor to measure the nacelle position and protect against cable twist, so called YAWMO / Yaw Motion Monitor.

We offer smart sensors and slip rings to provide and transmit digitalized data for optimized turbine control. All sensors also feature inbuilt condition monitoring to allow predictive maintenance and increase uptime as a result. The use of sensor-based load-reduced operation extends turbine lifespan, thus reducing energy costs.
