About active solar tracking PV systems
Solar panels perform best when they face the sun.
Solar trackers for up to 30% more energy.
Our dual-axis Solar Tracker systems continuously adjust the panels to the optimal angle of incidence of the sun, so you get more energy from the same panel capacity.
- 30+ years of industrial experience
- Robust steel structure
- Automatic sun tracking
- 5-year warranty
Charging batteries, running a workshop or planning an off-grid power supply? Then it also matters when the energy you generate is available.
Fixed installation
- Panel orientation stays the same all day.
- The favourable angle of incidence only occurs at certain times of day.
Solar tracker
- Panel position follows the path of the sun.
- Morning and afternoon sunshine is also captured at a better angle.
More opportunity to charge batteries
Energy generated during the day can be stored for later use.
Daytime consumption supported for longer
Powering workshops, business sites, pumps and other loads.
Solar tracking and energy storage together
For those who also care about when the generated energy is available.
Follow the sun. Make use of more hours of the day.
A continuous power supply also requires a battery sized to your consumption and, where needed, a backup energy source; generation depends on the weather.

Operators of passive PV systems can only use the rated maximum capacity of their panels during part of the sunny hours. If you want your solar investment to deliver steady, rated output for as long as the sun provides usable energy, we recommend our Solar tracker product line.
Compared with passive systems, solar trackers deliver extra energy because they keep the PV panels in the optimal position at all times, getting the maximum output from them.
Quality and durability
The system consists of a hot-dip galvanised steel structure, axial and linear drive motors, and a central control unit.
- The steel structure is maintenance-free for 30-40 years, provided its surface is not damaged.
- We give a 5-year warranty on the drive motors. They are maintenance-free, fully waterproof mechanisms whose capacity far exceeds what the application requires.
- We give a 5-year warranty on the control electronics. For customers who bought a complete system, out-of-warranty replacements are supplied at a discounted price.
Additional costs to expect
- Erecting the system requires a concrete foundation or ground screw anchoring.
- Commissioning requires a crane, an aerial work platform and specialists experienced in PV installation.
- For flat-roof mounting, a structural engineer must assess the load.
I recommend solar trackers to everyone who is open to new, innovative technology. Wishing you bright days ahead!
