Hengshen carbon fiber contributes to 143-meter-long MingYang wind blade

Hengshen Co. Ltd. (China), engaged in the research, development and manufacture of carbon fiber, woven and NCF fabrics, prepreg, resin and other composite materials, announces that it is exclusively providing the carbon fiber fabric used to fabricate MySE292 ultra-large offshore wind blades developed by MingYang Group (Guangdong, China).

The MySE292 blade is 143 meters long with an impeller diameter of 292 meters, surpassing the 18-MW wind turbine model announced by Mingyang in January 2023. The first blade was successfully rolled off the production line at the Dongfang Intelligent Manufacturing Base in Hainan in February of this year, and is claimed to be the wind power plant with the largest impeller diameter that has rolled off the production line worldwide.

Hengshen boasts 5,000-ton carbon fiber production lines with an annual production capacity of 5,000 tons of carbon fiber. Its product portfolio covers raw silk, carbon fiber, sizing agents, fabrics, liquid resins, adhesives, prepregs, carbon fiber composite parts and aviation composite structural parts. In 2021, Hengshen Co. Ltd.’s 24K carbon fiber, fabric and carbon plate products obtained DNV certification from the international authoritative certification agency. Up to now, the company has supplied products such as carbon fiber pultruded sheets and warp-knitted fabrics in batches to well-known domestic and foreign wind turbine manufacturers such as Envision Energy, Shanghai Electric and Mingyang Intelligent. 

In 2024, Hengshen says it will continue to give full play to the technological advantages of the entire industry chain, drive development with innovation, break through technological boundaries, promote product technological innovation and be committed to providing products and services that exceed customer expectations to aid in China’s “double carbon economy” goals and green sustainable development.
