Towers & Drive Trains
The drive train is factory engineered and dynamic spin-balanced for vibration free operation and longer bearing life
Drive Line manufacturers agree that the least number of slip yokes implies the least amount of drive line wear. Chinook Wind Machines uses only one slip joint, substancially reducing potential wear and vibration that can also damage other components in the tower.
Chinook Towers are built 1/4" x 20" diameter on a spiral welded steel tubing. All towers measure 35' 2" to the center of the fun hub.
