24VDC Planetary Gear Motor VE Series Slew Drive For Optimized Solar
Trackers
VE Series Slew Drive Description
It makes sense to invest in solar trackers that employ strong,
reliable, field-tested slewing drives for movement. A drive that
uses hourglass worm technology will offer the greatest level of
strength and power thereby increasing field life and decreasing
downtime.
High quality, stable, durable slew drives will continue to help
generate optimal power more reliably.

Features
Slew drive is a new kind of slew products, with its compact design,
easy to mount and save more space. Slew drive consists of worm,
slew ring, end cup, motor and so on. The core part is slewing
bearing, so slew drive can also bear axial, radial loading and
titling moment at the same time.
Solar Tracking system & How They Work
A solar tracking system positions various loads―such as solar PV
panels, mirrors, reflectors or lenses―toward the sun. Trackers are
used to maximize the amount of incoming light by following the sun
as it moves across the sky all the time. Solar trackers are
categorized by the number and orientation of their axes and whether
they employ fixed, single or dual axis tracking systems.
