Quality Map

Strict compliance with international standard ISO 9001 and an integrated production process control guarantee the reliability of Bornay.

Our bioclimatic facilities and autosufficiency optimise the energy resources of our facilities, where Bornay windturbines are made and from where they are distributed to any point on the planet in 24-48 hours.

However, the true foundation of Bornay's quality is found in its people. It is a firmly committed and involved professional team, working to maintain the sturdiness of Bornay machinery.

Such painstaking care of details and the actual manufacturing process is what makes the difference.

Step 1 - Raw Materials


Raw Materials


The raw materials used in the manufacture of our windturbines have been rigorously selected to guarantee the reliability and durability of our machinery. Stainless steel, bronze, and carbon fiber are some of the materials we use.



Step 2 - Mechanics


Mechanics.


In the Mechanics area, raw materials are transformed into intermediate products. Plans are poured over to control the tolerance and quality of the finished product.




Step 3 - Electrics


Electrics


In the Electrics area, coils are wound and control panels made, while stringent checks confirm insulation and continuity in alternators and regulators undergo functionality testing.



Step 4 - Composites

Composites

The use of fiberglass/carbon fiber through RTM methods obtains blades with a unique resistence/weight ratio. Before they can be sent for assembly, they have to go through a proper catalyzing process.




Step 5 - Electrical transmission


Electrical transmission


The transmission of energy between the windturbine and the tower depends on the use of 3 slip rings around the orientation axis, as well as three sets of brushes.



Step 6 - Assembly

 

Assembly


Starting with the yaw, the alternator is then assembled, plus the blades and the other elements that make up the windturbine
.



Step 7 - Compensating and balancing


Compensating and balancing

 

Blades are compensated using similar weights and balances. These are later balanced on the rotor in order to avoid vibrations and extend the Bornay's useful life.


Step 8 - Final control


Final Control


After assembly, all elements are checked again: yaw control, casing, blades, nose cone, screws... The real power of the alternator is bench checked.



Step 9 - Delivery


Delivery


The product is in stock and ready for delivery to customers. Through the most reliable transport firms, 24-48 deliveries are guaranteed.



Step 10 - R+D+i

 

R+D+i


Bornay is an example of constant innovation since 1970, and boasts the qualified technical staff for commitment to improvements, evolution, and new product design.
