SunOyster - Solar Tracking System for Solar Concentrator

In order to concentrate the solar radiation on the receiver, the SunOyster needs a precise vertical tracking. This is ensured by powerful slew drives. They are connected to the sturdy torque tubes of the SunOyster which are forming the basis of the mirrors. Moreover, the slew drives bring the SunOyster mirrors in a secure position (“Oystering”) to protect the mirrors from stormy winds and the reflectors and the receiver from hail or dirt.
