Transformer Fleet & Condition Assessment
Would you like to put your remaining 2019 maintenance budget to good use? Do you have concerns or questions regarding the remaining life or condition of your transformer fleet? Utilizing our extensive knowledge of transformer insulation and design, Weidmann are available to provide condition assessments on individual units or your entire transformer fleet. Understanding your […]
weiterlesenCase Study V: LV losses
The reasons of very high losses in the LV winding cannot be explained but through simulations. Finite Element Analysis allows finding and optimized solution at the same cost of the original one. For all the details click here.
weiterlesenBTS @ Weidmann – Creping Process
Weidmann produce high quality, electrical grade crepe paper that, along with other applications, is used in the manufacturing of high voltage transformer bushings. Our material is utilized in applications that exceed one million volts DC, therefore demands the highest levels of quality, consistency and adherence to customer requirements and tolerances. Given that transformers form a […]
weiterlesenMoisture Protection of Insulation Material
Transformer manufacturers are well aware of the effect humidity has on insulation material, whether it is made of cellulose or aramid fibers. Changes in the water content of the material leads to shrinkage and swelling respectively. During the winding process, winders have noticed deformation between the strips at the upper end of the vertically wound […]
weiterlesenCase Study IV: Top lead exit thermal analysis
Through simulations design configurations were validated. Simple, inexpensive and counterintuitive solutions can be found for complex problems. For all the details click here.
weiterlesenBTS@Weidmann – Rings
The world’s largest transformers demand the world’s largest components. At high voltages, especially in HVDC projects, the quality of components and adherence to strict tolerances is also essential. Weidmann manufacture the world’s largest Shield Rings at both European and American facilities. But how are these constructed? And how are such large components shipped safely and […]
weiterlesenAging Blog
„Save cost – buy quality“ was a Weidmann slogan many years ago. Since then the cost pressure in the industry has increased dramatically; yet the slogan remains true to its word. Stakeholders in the transformer industry are under substantial cost pressure, which in turn is passed on to suppliers. Participants in the supply chain do their best to minimize costs and present an […]
weiterlesenCase Study III: Forces under double inrush condition
Through co-simulation (FEM and circuit system simulator), forces under inrush condition in complex configurations are computed; correcting measures can be put in action to prevent failures. For all the details click here.
weiterlesenTUF-Flex®
Developed to insulate low voltage windings in distribution transformers, TUF-Flex® is a thin paper that replaces thicker papers. It combines excellent mechanical strength with electrical characteristics and aging behavior. Using the highest quality raw materials, TUF-Flex® is manufactured following design processes that achieve the optimal electrical characteristics. The paper is produced on multi-ply machines that [...] weiterlesenAnd the winner is…..Weidmann!
Each year, the Croatian Association of Exporters organize the ‘Golden Key‘ gala event to highlight the achievements of Croatian companies and award the best exporters. The awards are a very prestigious affair, with the Prime Minister of Croatia and other cabinet members in attendance. We are proud to announce that this year Weidmann Izo-Prod was […]
