LINAK Introduces Actuator Solutions for Solar Tracker Movement
|
From LINAK U.S. Inc.
LINAK, a leading international manufacturer of DC linear actuator products, introduces a broad family of actuator systems for solar tracking systems. A solar tracking system is a device for orienting a solar panel, or concentrating a solar reflector or lens, towards the sun. To keep up with other green energies, the solar cell market has to be as efficient as possible, and there are two main ways to make the solar cells more efficient, one is to develop the solar cell material and another way is to optimize the output by installing the solar panels on a tracking base that follows the sun. In either a single or dual axis tracking systems, LINAK solutions can help increase the output of PV panels up to 40% when compared to fixed mount systems. Products & Services
Electric linear actuators have an output rod that provides linear motion via a motor driven ball screw, lead screw, or ACME screw assembly. The actuator's load is attached to the end of a screw or rod and is often unsupported.
