Single Axis Slew Drive With Electric Motor PV Solar Tracking System

Single Axis Slew Drive Description

The key components of a slew drive include the outer housing and gear and the driving motor. The gear is fixed to the equipment or structure, and is connected to the load or the part that needs to be rotated. The motor drives the worm and gear, which, in turn, rotates the entire assembly.

Slew drives are designed to provide precise motion control and high torque output while maintaining compact dimensions. They often incorporate worm gears or other types of gearing systems to achieve this. The gear ratio of a slew drive determines the speed and torque characteristics of the rotation. By adjusting the gear ratio and controlling the motor speed, the rotational speed and positioning accuracy can be tailored to suit specific requirements.

Performace of VE Series Slewing Drives

Applications

Slewing drive application are usually found in such as: wind turbines, heavy load transporters, solar trackers, harbor cranes, hydraulic equipment, crane steering mechanisms, automation systems, heavy load manipulators, yaw and pitch control tables. The versatility, robustness, and ability to handle heavy loads make slewing drives suitable for a wide range of applications. They offer precise control, durability, and reliability, making them an integral component in many industries that rely on controlled rotation or slewing motion.
