According to LM Wind Power’s website, the company constructs the majority of their blades from a pure glass fiber and polyester matrix. They add that for each blade, they apply composite resins to their products and map out the properties of the different applied materials to understand how the different elements in their composite materials work together and how blades perform under real life conditions.
“The LM 88.4 P blade is an extraordinary example of industrialized innovation at record-breaking scale. It is based on innovation building blocks, rooted in 35 years of real life experience, in the design, technology and manufacturing of ultra-long, reliable blades,” said LM Wind Power’s CEO, Marc de Jong.
