Drive units for solar sun-tracker systems
Solar power plants require robust drive systems with high accuracy, efficiency and virtually maintenance-free long-term operation showing a high degree of reliability. Only components specially designed for outdoor use can meet the requirements. Worm gear units are ideally suited for the azimuth adjustment of a tracker and heliostat, since they can be used for virtually backlash-free transmission ratios and very slow movements. By target-oriented selection of defined materials, required parameters such as perfect wear behaviour, high fatigue strength and long-term corrosion protection are achieved and implemented. |
