Tracking systems for solar power plants
Applications
Tracking systems for parabolic-trough power plants
Tracking systems for parabolic-trough power plants precisely guide the parabolic troughs in-step with the movement of the sun. Because solar-thermal power plants are suitable only for the band between the latitudes of 35° N and 35° S, locations with the highest annual amounts of sunlight are often subject to a harsh desert climate. Large temperature differences between day and night, severe storms with grinding stand and, at locations near the sea, corrosion-promoting salt in the air. An extreme challenge for the drive components.

The properties of the hydraulics, which are known for being robust, reliable, and nearly maintenance free, predestine this drive technology to be the most suitable solution for reflector tracking. And through direct, linear power generation, they operate without mechanical relay elements that are subject to wear.
