Project planning begins with the first visit to the site, where our engineers use aerial drones equipped with Lidar technology to 3D map the terrain. During this visit, we conduct detailed soil investigations and foundation analyses, allowing us to develop preliminary drawings that account for critical factors such as terrain, wind loads, and other environmental influences.
By analyzing the soil composition, we accurately calculate the necessary foundation material thickness and specify protective steel coatings for more aggressive soil conditions. This process ensures that environmental factors affecting the system's longevity are thoroughly considered, providing a tailored, durable solution for each project.
Atmospheric conditions are just as important as soil composition, but they affect different components in the system; tracker tables and drive train components are designed and manufactured to the specific durability required to meet our customers' design needs. Our holistic approach to project design and implementation is how we can guarantee an economical and long-lasting tracker.
We provide these on-site services because we understand your success hinges on industry-leading comprehensive support and partnership from planning to commissioning.
Leveraging our uniquely agile and highly scalable global supply chain means project deliveries happen on schedule, and our team is on-site to verify that the condition and quality of the materials delivered meet our industry-leading quality standards. When our L:TEC trackers arrive on your project site, you receive the best industry know-how, training, technical assistance, and, most importantly, confidence.
Your dedicated project manager will ensure the success of your project through hands-on installation training and best practice coaching for installation and O&M personnel. As your project progresses and rows of solar trackers are installed, the project manager will perform spot checks of the system to proactively identify any potential future issues before they become a problem that could affect the project timeline and cost.
