A turning device, for manufacturing wind turbine blades and turning moulds relative to each other, having a base, a rotational part movable relative to the base on an rotational axis, a first linear actuator with first and second ends, the first end attaching to the base, and the second end attaching to the rotational part at a first anchor point on a first turning axis, and a second linear actuator having first and second ends, the first end attaching to the base, and the second end attaching to the rotational part at a second anchor point on a second turning axis. The first turning axis is a first distance from the rotation axis and is moved on a first arc on the rotation axis, and the second turning axis is a second, different distance from the rotation axis and is moved along a second arc on the rotation axis.

An automatic opening and closing device for a mold assembly includes a base, a pivot seat, a first extensible unit, an upper mold mounting unit, two shafts, a second extensible unit, a left arm and a right arm. The first extensible unit can move the upper mold mounting unit downward to clamp or release the mold, and the second extensible unit is used to move the pivot seat between two positions. When the pivot seat is in a first position, the upper mold mounting unit can be lowered down to secure or release the mold by the first extensible unit, when in the second position, the upper mold mounting unit and the mold can be rotated an angle, to perform opening or closing of the mold assembly.
