Wind expertise at a glance
Supporting wind since 2005
Fabory has supplied fasteners to customers in the wind energy industry since 2005.
Standard and customised solutions
Standard products are complemented by specially sourced or developed fasteners to meet customer and application requirements.
Batch traceability
Production batches are managed through Fabory's logistics process to support product traceability and quality documentation.
Fastening requirements in wind turbine production
Wind turbine components can place demanding requirements on fasteners. Specifications may define dimensions, mechanical properties, materials, surface treatments, corrosion protection and documentation requirements, depending on the component and application.
Fabory supports customers in interpreting these requirements and identifying suitable standard or custom fastening solutions. Technical specialists can support fastener selection and application through product knowledge, calculations, testing and engineering expertise.

From technical specification to verified supply
1. Technical specification
Customer drawings, application requirements and technical specifications define the fastening requirement.
2. Product selection or sourcing
Fabory identifies a suitable standard product or supports the sourcing and development of a customised fastener.
3. Quality verification
Product drawings, quality records, inspection and laboratory capabilities support verification against agreed requirements.
4. Traceable supply
Batch management, documentation and logistics support traceability through to delivery into the customer's production process.
Engineering and quality support
Fastener quality is particularly important where components are produced to customer-specific specifications. Fabory can support customers with technical consulting, product drawings, prototyping, quality documentation and laboratory inspection of customised products.
Depending on customer requirements, documentation may include production and quality records as part of the verification process. Batch management then supports traceability as products move through Fabory's internal logistics operation.
Supporting efficient wind turbine assembly
Supplying the correct fastener is only one part of the requirement. Manufacturers also need components to reach production in the right quantities, configuration and sequence.
Fabory can supply kits containing components such as stud bolts, hex bolts, washers, sleeves and nuts. Components can be packed and marked according to agreed assembly requirements, helping customers organise supply to individual production activities.

Where required, structured inventory and replenishment solutions such as Fabory Logic can also support fastener availability and stock visibility within the production environment.
Fastening expertise for onshore and offshore wind
Fabory supports both onshore and offshore wind applications with standard and customised fasteners, technical expertise, quality control, traceability and production-focused logistics.
This provides customers with support from initial specification and verification through to delivery into production.
