DAW Windturbine Inspections delivers engineering-grade inspection services, advanced data processing, and structured technical reporting for wind turbine assets. We support O&M's, contractors, asset owners and operators across The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland for both onshore and offshore wind projects.
Our inspections are designed to reduce risk, minimize downtime, and provide actionable insight throughout the full wind turbine lifecycle.
Wind Turbine Inspection Services
We provide comprehensive, high-resolution inspections covering all critical turbine components:
Visual Blade Inspections Inspection of exterior blade surfaces and internal structures using:
- High-resolution optical zoom imaging Radiometric thermal imaging
- LIDAR scanning
These techniques enable the detection of: Surface defects and erosion Delamination and bond line issues Moisture ingress Lightning strike indications Early-stage material degradation
Lightning Protection System (LPS) Inspections
DAW Windturbine Inspections performs dedicated inspections of the Lightning Protection System, a critical safety and asset-protection component of modern wind turbines.
Our LPS inspections include:
- Visual and high-resolution inspection of receptor condition and continuity paths Detection of lightning strike damage and burn marks Verification of conductor routing and attachment points
- Thermal analysis to identify hidden damage or compromised connections Assessment of potential secondary damage to blade structure caused by lightning events
- The inspection results support compliance verification, failure prevention, and informed maintenance planning, reducing the risk of catastrophic blade damage and unplanned outages

TOPseven LPS Inspection system
Droones Aerial Works started working with TOPseven's Lightning Protection Measurement System Three Components. One Inspection Sequence. BEAT is designed around a single operational logic: mount, calibrate, fly, measure, review. Three Signal Generators inject the test signal at the blade roots. The drone-mounted Field Sensor handles calibration, measurement, and communication during flight. The onboard calibration camera eliminates the need for a separate calibration flight — reducing setup time and getting teams into the inspection sooner.
