Since 1984 Sintech has supplied the South African market with clutches, brakes and engineering solutions for a range of applications not only in mining and mining-related industries but also the clean energy sector.
Electricity produced from wind is clean and renewable and will assist in reducing the country’s reliance on coal fired generation. It does not consume water during the generation process and is a viable option for a renewable energy source in Southern Africa where water is a scarce resource.
Wind turbines, however, need reliable parts and regular maintenance. Sintech is in a unique position to offer full product support to the wind turbine market with an ISO 9001:2015 approved facility in Boksburg and factory trained technicians.
Sintech is the sole representative of Svendborg Brakes in South Africa and an approved service centre for clutches, brakes, gearboxes and torque drives.
It offers a complete solution for high speed brakes, low speed brakes, yaw brakes, and rotor brakes, locking devices and hydraulic power units. Their services include condition monitoring and inspection, service and repair, stock availability, service exchange, service contracts, as well as disc refurbishment.
Sintech offers access to local technicians and services in all Southern African countries. Visit www.turbinebrakes.com for more information.
