Blades R&D > Components and Process Engineering > Assembly and Finish The Assembly and Finish department is part of the Blade Module in Vestas and is responsible for all processes, CATIA 3D models, and drawings related to blade assembly, paint, and finish for both onshore and offshore blades. The department also supports new blade technology projects and provides engineering support to internal and external blade manufacturing factories. The team consists of approximately dedicated colleagues located in Chennai (India), Lem (Denmark), and the Isle of Wight (UK), with around five team members focused specifically on CATIA models and drawings.

Our role is to design blade components and manufacturing processes that are robust, repeatable, and easy to manufacture, enabling our production units to deliver high-quality blades in a cost-competitive way. We are accountable for developing and maintaining blade assembly, paint, and finish processes, including work with PFMEA, process validation, manufacturing requirement specifications, and CATIA models, drawings, and laser files. Clear and unambiguous communication of design and process intent is essential, enabling our manufacturing colleagues to optimize their processes and tools within defined constraints.

We are a proactive, results-driven team that turns ideas into reality while maintaining the highest quality standards. As part of the department, you will see your work quickly translated into real products manufactured across our global footprint.
