At Intersolar Europe, PV-Kraftwerker will be showcasing “Momo”, the assembly robot that can build entire open area solar parks. The robot is able to mount PV modules onto support racks through a gripper system, sensors and a 3-D camera, which also catches any aberration from the standard and corrects and adjusts deviations. The robot has no trouble covering large distances and the modules rarely suffer breakages on any sort of terrain, as PV-Kraftwerker’s Eberhard Schulz mentioned.  

The robot is equipped with interface software that interprets the data captured by the sensors. Gripper and camera are coordinated with each other and can quickly find the module’s position on the rack to ensure accurate assembly. “Momo” can cover up to 70km in one assembly.
