Responsibilities

On-Site Mechanical Inspections and Testing

• Conduct mechanical inspections of wind turbine installations, including checks on tower alignment, nacelle positioning, and rotor blade fitment.
• Verify torque settings, bolt pre-loads, and lubrication levels in mechanical assemblies to ensure compliance with turbine specifications.

Support for Customer Complaints and Issue Resolution

• Address mechanical-related customer complaints by conducting on-site diagnostics, including vibration analysis and thermal imaging.
• Implement corrective actions for issues such as misalignments, excessive wear, and abnormal noise, coordinating with internal teams as needed.

Mechanical Component Quality Verification

• Inspect mechanical components, including yaw drives, pitch systems, and gearboxes, to ensure they meet installation and operational standards.
• Perform tests such as resonance frequency analysis and alignment check to validate the proper functioning of mechanical systems.

Documentation and Compliance

• Maintain detailed records of all on-site inspections, test results, and corrective actions, ensuring compliance with customer agreements and industry standards.
• Ensure that all mechanical QA activities at the site adhere to standards such as ISO 10816 (Mechanical Vibration) and IEC 61400-4 (Design Requirements for Gearboxes).

Training and Technical Support to Customers

• Provide technical support and training to customer personnel on mechanical maintenance, troubleshooting, and safe operation of turbines.
• Assist customers in understanding mechanical performance data, including vibration signatures and alignment tolerances.

Coordination with Site Teams and Contractors

• Work closely with installation teams and contractors to ensure mechanical systems are installed correctly and meet quality standards.
• Support the lead in coordinating quality audits and inspections at the customer site, focusing on mechanical aspects.

Continuous Improvement and Feedback
