Industrial manufacturer Eaton Corporation says it will provide key wind-power technologies to Guodian United Power Technology Co. Ltd., a wind turbine manufacturer in China. The agreement will generate about $1.5 million in revenues annually for the U.S. firm.
Eaton’s Hydraulics Group based in Shanghai will supply hydraulic power units equipped with Vickers and Integrated Hydraulics screw-in cartridge valves for yaw and shaft braking functions on Guodian wind turbines produced in Hebei Province. Eaton will also supply Aeroquip MatchMate Plus hose and Winner fittings for turbine brakes.
