ABSTRACT

The contribution deals by the suggestion of new manufacturing technology for handmade
screw blade for wind-power plant. A wind turbine is a device that converts kinetic
energy from the wind into electricity for distribution. Wind turbine blades are most
often fabricated by hand using multiple layers of fibreglass cloth. The traditional
method is for the sheets to be cut to shape, laid down in a mould by hand, sprayed or
rolled with resins, and finally cured. The automation of the manufacturing of hand-made
prototypes is one of the main goals in present days what is enabled by the quick
development of information technology and by the sequential application of computer
aid into all areas of the production. . This article originates with the direct support of
