Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a production line (5) for manufacturing a wind turbine blade (11). The production line (5) comprises a first workstation (61) configured for carrying out a post moulding manufacturing step on an assembled blade (10) when the assembled blade (10) passes along the first workstation (61) while being conveyed in a first direction (D1) that is substantially aligned with a longitudinal axis of the assembled blade (10). The first workstation (61) extends over a length in a direction that is substantially parallel to the first direction (D1). The length of the first workstation (61) is less than a longitudinal length of the assembled blade (10). The production line (5) also comprises a conveyor system (70) configured for conveying the assembled blade (10) in the first direction (D1). The present disclosure also relates to a method for carrying out a post moulding manufacturing step on an assembled wind turbine blade (10).
