VH7 Technology Specification

Our mechanical actuators are designed for horizontal single-axis and dual-axis photovoltaic tracking systems, CSP, and CPV solar tracking. They also serve as steady solutions for aerial working platforms, truck cranes, drilling rigs, and automated assembly lines.

A single-axis solar tracker improves solar output by approximately 25%, while a dual-axis tracker can improve it by around 40%. This system is designed to point panels directly at the light source based on precise measurements.
