ZF Services has announced the completion of the installation of the 2.5MW test bench at its Vernon Hills, Illinois, USA, Wind Service Center.
The project, which began with construction in September of 2012, is the result of a US$ 1.6 million grant from the State of Illinois. The recently completed test bench will be able to test over 200 gearboxes annually. The recently completed test bench and redesigned facility now allows the company to offer a wider range of services, providing a tailor made one stop shop approach for multi brand gearbox and mechanical drive train repair.
