Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a wind turbine blade shell part made of a fibre-reinforced composite structure, including steps of mounting a plurality of fastening devices on a mounting plate to form a root end assembly, the mounting plate comprising one or more first openings for evacuating air; arranging the root end assembly over a mould surface of a mould; arranging an air-tight cover member so as to form a mould cavity; evacuating air from the mould cavity via at least the one or more first openings of the mounting plate; and supplying a polymer into the mould cavity and allowing the polymer to cure so as to form the composite structure. A root end assembly for use in the method is also provided.

Abstract: A fabric and a method for making the same. The fabric includes a layer of unidirectionally oriented carbon fibre filaments sandwiched between a first layer of glass fibre rovings and a second layer of glass fibre rovings. The first layer of glass fibre rovings and the second layer of glass fibre rovings are linked by a connecting material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to wind turbine blade and a method of manufacturing the wind turbine blade. An aerodynamic shell is provided with a recess (70) at its inner surface, the recess (70) extending with-in the shell along a spanwise direction of the blade. A first region of the recess (70) has a first width and a second region of the recess (70) has a second width exceeding the first width. A transition region is provided between the first region and the second region of the re-cess. A first and a second spar cap (80, 82) are arranged within the shell.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a wind turbine blade (10), comprising the steps of placing a fibre lay-up including one or more fibre layers on the mould surface of a blade mould (60), arranging a load-bearing structure (45) and a core member (62) on the fibre lay-up such that the core member (62) is arranged between the load-bearing structure (45) and the leading edge (18) and/or between the load-bearing structure (45) and the trailing edge (20), and infusing resin into the blade mould to impregnate the fibre lay-up. The core member (62) comprises a first hole (64) with a circular cross section, a first cylindrical insert (70) rotatably arranged within the first hole (64) of the core member (62), the first cylindrical insert (70) having a central axis (71). A recess (80) is formed in the first cylindrical insert (70), wherein the recess (80) is arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis (71) of the first cylindrical insert (70).
