We machine production parts for Solar Mounting and Trackers customers, from single prototypes through to repeat batches of tens of thousands. Typical work covers tracker bearing housings, clamp brackets and torque tube couplers, usually in 6061 or 6082.
What makes Solar Mounting and Trackers different from general machining is not the geometry — it is the documentation and the failure modes. The parts that come back are the ones where 25-year exposure to uv, salt and thermal cycling was not designed out at the start.
Parts we machine for Solar Mounting and Trackers
- Tracker bearing housings
- Clamp brackets
- Torque tube couplers
- Module frames
Materials we run for Solar Mounting and Trackers
- 6061
- 6082
- 5052
- Galvanised steel
Standards and documentation
- IEC 61215 for modules, IEC 62817 for trackers
Tell us which standard applies and which documents you need with the shipment. Dimensional reports, material certificates, certificates of conformity and first article inspection reports are all available, and it is much cheaper to agree them before the batch runs than to reconstruct them afterwards.
Where Solar Mounting and Trackers projects usually go wrong
- 25-year exposure to UV, salt and thermal cycling
- Galvanic corrosion at steel-aluminium joints
Tolerance and finish we hold
| Requirement | Typical capability |
|---|---|
| General tolerance | +/-0.1 mm is normally enough; corrosion allowance matters more than tolerance |
| Surface finish | Ra 0.4 to 3.2 um |
| Material certification | EN 10204 3.1 on request |
| Inspection | Dimensional report, CMM report, FAIR |
| Packaging | VCI and desiccant for steel, individual wrap for cosmetic faces |
Frequently asked questions
Do you have experience with Solar Mounting and Trackers parts?
Yes. Typical parts we run are tracker bearing housings and clamp brackets. We can share the process route and inspection approach for a comparable part before you commit.
Which materials do you recommend for Solar Mounting and Trackers?
6061, 6082, 5052, Galvanised steel. The right choice depends on which of corrosion, weight, strength and cost is the binding constraint, and we will say so plainly rather than quoting the most expensive option.
What documentation do you provide?
A dimensional report and a certificate of conformity as standard. Material certificates, CMM reports, FAIR and PPAP submissions are available when your quality system requires them.
What tolerances do you hold for Solar Mounting and Trackers parts?
+/-0.1 mm is normally enough; corrosion allowance matters more than tolerance is typical for the industry. Tighter tolerance on individual features is possible and is quoted against the specific feature rather than the whole part.
