Over the last 15 years, IDEEMATEC’s specialty has been following challenging terrain, building the design and engineering expertise that made L:TEC the industry benchmark. The L:TEC platform offers stability and safety, allowing solar plant construction where needed with confidence. High-wind regions are prime locations for IDEEMATEC trackers.

The webinar covered:

  • Design criteria for high-wind regions: Learn about the key features of the Horizon L:TEC 1P, including its locking technology, flat stow strategy, intelligent control system, and rigid design.
  • Design principles and methods: Discover how IDEEMATEC engineers use advanced FEM simulation models and extensive mechanical testing, such as free vibration and bolt torque tests, to achieve high-wind durability.
  • Characteristics of rigid solar trackers: Explore the role of stiffness in mode shapes and natural frequencies, and how the L:TEC 1P achieves the stability needed for high-wind regions.
  • Advanced aeroelastic wind tunnel testing: Observe how CPP Wind Engineering tests the L:TEC 1P for aeroelastic stability, overcoming modelling challenges to refine high-performance tracker designs.

Watch this webinar to gain essential insights into designing effective solar trackers for high-wind regions, highlighting IDEEMATEC’s approach through FEM simulation models, extensive mechanical testing and cutting-edge aeroelastic wind tunnel testing.
