Decoupling the drive motor from the main carrier relieves the drive train of mechanical loads and minimizes the required power, making L:TEC significantly more efficient than all conventional drives.
In the base configuration, the decoupled drive uses one drive sprocket per string to create mechanical stability points for the main beams. Our engineers can variably configure the 1P and 2P variantswith additional drive sprockets to achieve extreme stability. Carefully calculating the most robust design requirements, our design team produces a project tracker design with significantly lower mechanical stresses on modules and trackers while maintaining the smallest carbon footprint.
With Horizon L:TEC, careful design means fewer total components per string without compromising structural stability in extreme weather conditions.
The drive sprocket design allows for a wide range of motion with up to 60 degrees of inclination. Having such a high inclination capability means your project will make more power earlier and later in the day when paired with our intelligent backtracking algorithm.
Our decoupled drive means fewer total components per string and uncompromising structural stability in extreme weather conditions.
Since the main carrier and modules are decoupled by the drive transmission, and we control multiple tables with the same motor, our modular design allows us to drive more trackers.
