Precision machining of large machine bases for BILA

CNC milling and drilling of concrete-filled machine bases for automated equipment used in wind turbine blade production.

Challenge

Machine builders need large, stable bases with accurately machined surfaces and holes for guiding and positioning mechanical equipment. One BILA project involved a 9-metre-long welded machine base filled with 52 tonnes of concrete. The base was intended for automated equipment used to drill holes in wind turbine blades.

    Nordmark’s role

    Nordmark performed precision milling, drilling and machining of threaded holes on the large component.

    The assignment combined heavy-load handling with the accuracy required for the machine base and its subsequent integration into the equipment.
