Why is the Rutland so Unique ?

Marlec was the first wind generator manufacturer to design it's aerofoil blades and generator specifically as a wind turbine to maximise power conversion.
We developed our stator windings without an iron core for low friction so a Rutland offers the lowest wind speed start up by far of any design.
We encapsulate the stator coils in glass fibre to avoid common stator failures
We fixed the shaft reducing the number of rotating parts and the need for generator brushes
Built-in slipring & low wear brushes give the unit complete 360º free rotation on the mounting pole for power transmission whilst avoiding twisted cables.
We use two single magnets moulded into glass fibre avoiding the use of multiple magnets glued into position.
These features create a high inertia generator whose flywheel effect generates smooth, continuous power between gusts when other wind turbines have lost the power in the wind and stall between gusts.
All our designs are tested in real wind conditions and performance monitored and datalogged pre and post market release. (Many companies quote outputs based on fixed wind speeds measured from vehicle top testing)
We test and record results of every generator built

and last but not least… Marlec operates under the international standard of ISO9001, the first small wind turbine manufacturer worldwide to achieve this!
