Abstract: A method for producing a rotor blade for a wind power plant that in operational condition extends longitudinally from an area at the blade root for the connection at a rotor hub of the wind power plant, up to a blade tip, and that for its production is divided into at least two segments. The production of the rotor blade is facilitated and to the time required, is shortened especially for a series production. For its production, the rotor blade is segmented into more than two segments, that at least for a few of these segments separate manufacturing molds are provided that can be used temporally in parallel, and that for the final production of the rotor blade, the segments are connected together outside of a manufacturing mold into a rotor blade or a rotor blade part.

Abstract: A manufacturing mold for the production of a rotor blade for a wind turbine, where at least in one region of its longitudinal extension between a rotor blade root and a rotor blade tip, the finished rotor blade has an aerodynamic cross-sectional profile that has a profile leading edge (nose) and a profile trailing edge which are connected together via a suction side and a pressure side of the cross-sectional profile. A manufacturing mold can be divided along at least one separation plane which extends in the longitudinal direction of the rotor blade and between the profile leading edge and the profile trailing edge while simultaneously dividing the suction side and the pressure side, into a manufacturing mold part for producing a rotor blade part having the profile leading edge, and into a manufacturing mold part for producing a rotor blade profile part having the profile trailing edge.
