Solar Track Single Axis and Racking Systems PV Power Slewing Drive Green Energy

Slew Drive is a new type of slewing product, usually called slewing ring, which is usually composed of worm, slewing ring, housing, motor and other components. Since the core components are slewing bearings, they can simultaneously withstand axial forces, radial forces, and overturning moments. Compared with traditional rotary products, the new slewing drive features easy installation, easy maintenance and a greater degree of installation space.

Slew Drive are widely used in PV, CPV, STP solar tracking systems and construction applications including truck cranes, manlifts, turntables, port machinery, modular vehicles, small wind power systems and satellite communications.

• Tilting Moment Torque: Torque is the load multiplied by distance between the position of load and the center of slewing bearing. If the torque generated by load and distance is greater than the rated tilting moment torque, slewing drive will be overturned.
• Radial load: Load vertical to the axis of slewing bearing.
• Axial load: Load parallel to the axis of slewing bearing.
• Holding torque: It is the reverse torque. When the drive is rotating reversely, and parts are not damaged, the maximum torque achieved is called holding torque.
• Self-locking: Only when loaded, the slewing drive is not able to reverse rotate and thus called self-locking.

• Adopts transmission mode of plane secondary enveloping ring surface worm combined with slewing support for multi-tooth meshing.
• Improved and optimized design with thinner overall thickness and lighter weight.
• Central through-hole design for customer utility.
• High-grade materials: 42CrMo worm with secondary nitride treatment; 50Mn slewing bearing with quenched teeth for superior wear resistance.
