We guarantee 30-years of field-tested performance. Our in-house test laboratory allows us to perform a full battery of tests to guarantee reliability: environmental, life cycle, strength of materials, and accuracy. Our destructive testing verifies the material and performance limits of our products. We pair this with our non-destructive testing to monitor potential for degradation over time. Rigorous testing of our products ensures that every single one meets our high and exacting standards. These same detailed testing methods are also used in customer design proofing to ensure that our...

Solar Applications i ■ <r Kinematic Manilla during, Inc. A photovoltaic tracker is a solar tracker that uses photovoltaic panels to harness the energy from the sun. Photovoltaic trackers minimize the angle of incidence between the incoming light and a photovoltaic panel which increases the amount of energy produced from a fixed amount of installed power generating capacity. Slewing drives enable photovoltaic trackers to track the light from the sun by rotating to follow the rotation A heliostat is a device that includes a plane mirror to track the movements of the sun, constantly reflecting...

Solar Applications 'MII Kinematics Manilla during, Inc. Concentrated Photovoltaics (CPVs) concentrate sunlight through a lens onto high efficiency solar cells which increases the amount of electricity that is generated The concentration decreases the required cell area while at the same rime Increasing celt efficiency. It's Important to use an extremely accurate slewing drive for focusing the CPV. Kinematics manufactures both zero backlash drives and adjustable drives to less than OJmRad accuracy. The Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that uses heat from things like gasoline,...
