> Modular solar tracking system enables scalable parabolic troughs and Fresnel plants, that generate heat and steam from 100 to 400 °C for energy-intensive industry processes INTER CONTROL develops and produces innovative and reliable solar tracking systems. It is mainly used in scalable parabolic troughs and Fresnel plants to generate industrial process heat. The areas of the solar modules range between 100 to 140 m² per drive unit, depending on customer construction. INTER CONTROL offers producers and project companies of CSP plants (CSP = Concentrated Solar Power) complete, reliable and innovative tracking systems. The tracking systems are ready-to-install, consisting of modular drive units, controls, angle sensors and accessories. The centerpiece of the drive units are the slide bearing rotary drives, which include the drive and bearing in a single product. Due to the symmetrical design of the drives they offer a unique scalability of the CSP plants. They also have a high angle positioning accuracy at high torques and made for long-term use under extreme outdoor conditions. Thus, manufacturers of parabolic troughs do not need to install torsional stiffness over the entire length of CSP plants. The material, design and assembly complexity is significantly reduced. Lighter and cost-effective CSP collectors are used. Industries and applications, that benefit from CSP plants using the modular solar tracking technology: - Process steam: in paper and cardboard production, the food and textile industry, in breweries, etc. - Drying: in the food, textile and mining industry, wood, chipboard and pellet industry, sewage sludge industry, etc. - Heating: in apartment blocks, hotels, office buildings, greenhouses, paper and cardboard production, etc. - Water desalination: in processes like MED (Multi-Effect-Distillation) and MSF (Multi-Stage-Flash) to produce drinking, irrigation and process water - Absorption chiller / cooling: in apartment blocks, hotels, office buildings, cooling and refrigeration facilities, food industry, etc. - Electricity production: also in hybrid power plants with co-firing of solid (biomass, waste, coal, etc.), liquid (oil, etc.) and gas fuels As reference we refer tp the parabolic troughs and Fresnel plants of customers in Europe, MENA (= Middle East North Africa) and overseas. The customer plants fitted with our solar tracking technology operate in diverse industries worldwide. There the drive units demonstrate their reliability day by day. INTER CONTROL serves customers worldwide. We manage our operations with a workforce of 600 employees, 6 subsidiaries and 30 dealers. Industrial customers value INTER CONTROL as a reliable development partner and manufacturer with application knowledge and superior customer service.
