1. The advantages of linear actuators for solar systems

Linear actuators for solar systems offer a variety of performance advantages, such as their realization of automatic and synchronous control. Because of this, they have been widely applied in solar power facilities, military installations, and metallurgical applications. They serve as an ideal alternative to older motion control devices and other outdated equipment. Linear actuators for solar systems have been indispensable since their introduction into this industry. Below, we will expand upon the details of their advantages to understand why more and more clients have begun adopting them for their solar systems.

(1) High quality materials

Our linear actuators for solar systems are produced using aging resistant materials and come equipped with effective dust covers. Their nuts and turbines are manufactured using aluminum bronze and tin bronze as these materials provide excellent wear resistance and lubrication. Their metal shells are steel with a surface oxidation and spray treatments. Their plastic shells are made of plastic reinforced by nylon. And finally, their guide tubes are made of alumina. These materials ensure the linear actuators have a good appearance and outstanding performance.

(2) More selective

According to the requirements submitted by clients, linear actuators for solar systems can be completely customized to ensure their practicality and cost performance. Their front and rear-end mounting connectors have various types to meet your different requirements. The mounting connectors can be processed and modified to meet the specific application requirements and deliver high safety performance. They can be fixed with switches to prevent current overload.

(3) Low cost

As these linear actuators do not have traditional tanks, oil pumps, air compressors, pipeline equipment, or complicated devices, they are extremely cost effective. Not only does this result in lower costs but it helps avoid pollution. Therefore, our linear actuators for solar systems are both energy saving and environmentally friendly.

2. The advantages of Tomuu’s small linear actuators

We are surrounded by technology in this modern age, and as a result, small linear actuators can be found nearly everywhere. Small linear actuators are linear drive devices used to realize remote control, centralized control, and free control for many different types of products. Thanks to years of rich experience in this field, Tomuu’s small linear actuators are widely used in a variety of applications in medical, home, and industrial uses. Below we will explain why our small linear actuators are popular and what advantages they offer.

What are some advantages of Tomuu’s small linear actuators? These products offer the advantages of convenient use, minimal noise, and a compact structure. They can be installed in tight spaces while providing high performance. Tomuu’s small linear actuators help to realize functions of automated and intelligent equipment. They reduce labor intensity and improve working efficiency.

(2) Stability: Utilizing advanced processing technology, Tomuu can ensure each production stage is carried out in compliance with strict quality standards. As a result, our small linear actuators operate with excellent stability.

(3) Strong self-locking performance: In the event of power failure, the small linear actuator will automatically lock, holding its position for optimized safety.

(4) Compact size: The actuators are small enough to be installed for applications with minimal space. Despite this, the actuators still provide high level performance.

3. Tomuu’s heavy duty linear actuators for solar systems

Heavy duty linear actuators designed and manufactured by Tomuu have been widely used in solar tracking systems.

The U10 linear actuator is designed for both solar tracking systems and outdoor industrial applications. The device offers a high maximum load capacity with a compact structure that delivers excellent performance and a long service life. These actuators are primarily used to control the movement of solar panels and heliostats so as to ensure the solar system can absorb the maximum amount of sunlight during the day, thus improving electric output by as much as 30-50%.

The maximum dynamic load is up to 20000N (4000lbs). The U10 linear actuator is perfect for applications that require a large max load capacity with only a small space for installation. It can be used in numerous applications including robotics, solar tracking systems, and various types of automated industrial equipment.

Parameters of the U10 linear actuator： Voltage: 12/24/36/48V DC, Max load: 30000N, No-load velocity:1.7~2.0mm/s, Full-load velocity:1.3~1.5mm/s, Stroke: 30-1800mm, Minimum installation distance: s+310mm, Waterproof class：IP65, Temperature：-25℃ ~ +65℃

Tomuu linear actuators deliver high speed, high precision, high max load capacity, and provide a long service life as they are well adapted to harsh environments. They are ideal replacements for hydraulic cylinders and can be widely used in various types of automobiles, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, and much more.

They are able to withstand harsh environments thanks to their reliable design, wide operating temperature range, water-proof properties, and outstanding corrosion resistance. They can work in environments where they may be exposed to fertilizer, mud, sand, slush, saltwater, etc.

They can be widely used in:
  • Agricultural machinery, road maintenance
  • Constructional engineering
  • Ships, yachts, and drilling platforms
  • Food industry
  • Train, tram
  • Mining equipment
  • Military

Our linear actuators provide industry leading velocity, vibration resistance, and impact resistance. They can work stably at 100% load capacity and provide both digital and analog feedback options without increasing their volume. The linear position sensors are non-contact so as to ensure the service life of the feedback device is as long as that of the linear actuator itself. They avoid signal distortions caused by abrasion; therefore, a recalibration system is not needed.

Linear actuators for solar systems, motors for linear motion applications

The primary function of linear actuators for solar systems is to move solar panels and heliostats to ensure they get the maximum amount of sunlight each day to optimize electrical output. We will get into the working principles of the solar tracking linear actuators below.

  • Normal tracking: Used in good weather conditions, this function will follow the sun on clear days to maximize electrical generation.
  • Intermittent tracking: This is used in the case of cloudy and inclement weather. If the system considers the current weather unsuitable for solar tracking, it will set the linear actuator into halt mode to conserve energy. Until the weather and sun conditions are suitable for solar tracking, the system will send out quick tracking instructions and let the solar panels and heliostats roughly face whatever sunlight there is. The system will then acquire another set of signals to realize fine tracking.
  • Automatic return: After the sun has set, the system will return the panels and heliostats to their beginning position in anticipation of the sun rising the next day. The system will enter hibernation mode once this function has been completed.
  • Bad weather protection: When wind speeds increase or precipitation poses a threat to linear actuator functioning, the tracker will automatically stop the system and move the panels parallel or perpendicular to the ground to protect the system from damage.
5. The application of Tomuu’s furniture actuators

If you ever wondered what the driving force was for furniture like electric sofas and recliners, the answer is usually linear actuators. The movement of the metal frame inside the sofas or chairs is pushed by linear actuators so that you can recline your upper body and raise your legs into a comfortable position.
