This device is for very large thin-walled cylindrical steel components used in offshore windturbine monopiles. The photos were made for a research project located at Center for Sensor Systems at the University of Siegen, which aims to develop a smart roller turning device, on which the parts are manufactured, with an intelligent and active system for automated load distribution. Thus, by integrating elements of artificial intelligence, the currently limiting, production-related asymmetric load distributions and overloads, vibrations as well as drift phenomena can be largely compensated or prevented.
