The American startup offers a new kit to integrate robot automation with existing equipment.
Our startup Xpanner has launched a robot automation kit to adopt the solar drivers of Zonne energy made by manufacturers of heavy machines.
The Xpanner X1 kit is designed to be compatible with several equipment manufacturers. It was recently provided to change pole control programs made by the American manufacturer in the American machines Vermeer Corporationtold a spokesperson for the company PV -Magazine.
The kit contains the required hardware and advanced software to make integration possible with the Vermeer PD10 operating system, which in turn makes control of the tracks, mast and hammer possible. It includes Xpanner’s own components, such as its mango controller to accurately control hydraulic, electrical and mechanical subsystems, and its M2 environmental processing unit.
Other components include an Akki Global Navigation Satellite Satellite System (GNSS) -receiver, two Septentrio GNSS -Atennes, a 450 MHz Radio -antenna, 3 Inertial Meeting (IMU) Sensors, a Panasonic tablet, a Vermeer interface cable.
The retrofit of the stacking equipment of customers is supplied by Xpanner Field technicians and can be completed on site at the location of the customer to minimize downtime. It is available in the United States, and strategic international expansion to other markets, such as Australia, is planned.
The X1 kit is designed to increase the productivity of the project team, to lower the costs and to increase efficiency. It does this by accelerating the project timeline, removing repetitive tasks, such as the need to investigate each stack location and improve quality, according to the company. It supports automated hammer and height control and “sub-inch pile placement accuracy” to reduce the efforts of the rebellion and at the same time retain the structural integrity for the entire solar array.
With regard to safety, various additional functions are provided to improve control, in addition to compliance with the relevant safety standards in the industry. According to the company, it also offers project managers built in real -time in real time for improved reporting and decision -making.
Looking ahead, Xpanner has plans to release an X1 kit for lifting excavators in the solar panel in the fourth quarter.
The company was founded in Zuid -Korea in 2020 and founded an American company in California in 2023.
