From the gondola through the tower to the grid connectionLAPP, headquartered in Stuttgart, is the world market leader for integrated solutions for cable and connection technology. With brands such as ÖLFLEX® (connection and control cables), SKINTOP® (cable entry systems) and EPIC® (industrial connectors), we offer absolute quality products and complete system solutions that meet the highest demands of wind turbine manufacturers. Ready-to-connect ÖLFLEX CONNECT systems are manufactured worldwide in the same high quality.
In the state-of-the-art test centre at LAPP's headquarters in Stuttgart, we ensure that our products in the wind turbines function reliably over the long term, even under the most demanding conditions. The centrepiece is a 16-metre-high tower in which cables up to 12 metres long can be tested under realistic conditions such as those prevailing in the loop of a wind turbine. The concept of the test facility, in which all attachment points of cables and wires are designed exactly as under real conditions, has only been implemented once again in Europe so far.
Especially for the wind energy industry, we have developed and tested cables that are flame-retardant, halogen-free and torsionable and cover a very wide temperature range. In conjunction with the SKINTOP® fittings, which have unrivalled vibration protection, we offer a range that is perfectly tailored to the high requirements and meet the current international standards with many products.
With 18 of our own production plants in Europe, Asia and the United States, as well as sales offices and logistics centers on six continents, our solutions are available to our customers quickly and always in the same high quality anywhere in the world.
