The paper describes a 2-DOF parallel kinematic machine designed to achieve precise solar tracking. The mechanism has been developed keeping in mind that solar concentration technology requires a precise alignment of photovoltaic modules and sun radiation, with error allowance much lower than those ensured by traditional sun trackers. The paper describes the kinematic structure and discusses its forward and inverse kinematic, providing the tools to design a system that satisfies the requirements for dexterity and workspace.

Abstract
The paper describes a 2-DOF parallel kinematic machine designed to achieve precise solar tracking. The mechanism has been developed keeping in mind that solar concentration technology requires a precise alignment of photovoltaic modules and sun radiation, with error allowance much lower than those ensured by traditional sun trackers. The paper describes the kinematic structure and discusses its forward and inverse kinematic, providing the tools to design a system that satisfies the requirements for dexterity and workspace.Pubblicazioni consigliate
