The second phase of the roof solar plant in Antaisolar factory has been completed

Following the first phase of roof solar plant put into operation by Antai(Antaisolar's head office) in May this year, the second phase of it was unveiled again at Antai factory(Your best metal roof mounting system manufacturer). Located on the metal sheet roof, with a total area of 10,000 square meters, Antai engineers provided standing seam roof mount solution to offer the simple and stable fixing , ensuring roof waterproofing while reducing the indoor temperature, which can achieve energy conservation and environmental protection.

The project ,with the installed capacity of 800 kilowatts, commenced on November 20, has nearly completed the panel installation work and is expected to connect to the grid next month. Its estimated annual generating capacity of 880,000 KWh, as a strong supply of clean energy, it will provide a good guarantee for the daily operation of the factory.

As the first company to invest in solar power station in Changtai County, Zhangzhou, Antai has cooperated with several enterprises in Changtai to effectively utilize the existing roof, providing one-stop power station engineering service to reap the both economic and environmental benefits.

Antaisolar solar racking utilized for 1MW project in South Korea

Recently, Antaisolar provided pile ground solar racking for 1MW solar project in Chungnam, South Korea. For the project was installed on the slope(10 degrees), Antaisolar offered the pile driven system solution with the designed wind speed of 25m/s and snow load of 0.5kn/sqm according to local natural environment and construction condition. The project is nearly finished for the high installation efficiency of pile driven.


-The pile was 1.8 meters deep under the ground.

Antaisolar pile ground mounting system is a very economical solution for large scale installations, especially on uneven terrain. It’s a simple and quick installation system for the use of ramming post can eliminate the need for additional excavation works, and the pile-driven machine reduces labor and time remarkably on site. It can save lots of construction cost especially for large projects. Moreover, Antaisolar pile ground mounting system has good component compatibility, high rust-resistance and excellent weather resistant property.

Nowadays, Antaisolar pile ground solar solution has been successively used in different locations in South Korea, which is well recognized and widely praised by local customers.

Antaisolar won the award of "Solar Cup" Annual Solar Bracket Enterprise in 2017

The 9th China International New Energy Conference & Exhibition was held in Wuxi to conduct the 2017 "Guangneng" CUp awards presentation ceremony of PV industry, a grand event comprised industry experts, business leaders and technical elites. Antaisolar was honored with the title of "annual solar racking enterprise" title, which fully demonstrated the industry's recognition and support to us.

Over ten years focus on the production &sales of aluminum profile, Antaisolar solar mounting system has acquired recognition worldwide for its high quality, ease to use and quick delivery time. A wide range of product includes flat roof solar racking, standing seam roof solar racking and ground solar racking etc. With multiple advantages, Antai has accumulative mounts shipment over 5GW and becomes one of the most leading suppliers of solar mounting systems.

Optimal tilt of solar panels

To get the most from solar panels, you need to point them in the direction that captures the most sun, This page is designed to help you find the best placement for your solar panels in your situation. This advice applies to any type of panel that gets energy from the sun; photovoltaic, solar hot water, etc. We assume that the panel is fixed, or has a tilt that can be adjusted seasonally.

Fixed or Adjustable?

It is simplest to mount your solar panels at a fixed tilt and just leave them there. But because the sun is higher in the summer and lower in the winter, you can capture more energy during the whole year by adjusting solar panels according to the season. The following table shows the effect of adjusting the angle, using Tilt Of Solar Panels a system at 40° latitude as an example.

In short, Adjusting Solar Panels twice a year gives you a meaningful boost in energy. Adjusting four times a year produces only a little more,Optimal tilt of solar panels will bring you more energy.

Fixed Tilt

If your solar panels will have a fixed tilt angle, and you want to get the most energy over the whole year
1:If your latitude is below 25°, use the latitude times 0.87.
2:If your latitude is between 25° and 50°, use the latitude, times 0.76, plus 3.1 degrees.

Adjusting the tilt twice a year

If you are going to adjust the tilt of your solar panels twice a year, and you want to get the most energy over the whole year,
If your latitude is between 25° and 50°, then the best tilt angle for summer is the latitude, times 0.93, minus 21 degrees. The best tilt angle for winter is the latitude, times 0.875, plus 19.2 degrees.

	Northern hemisphere	Southern hemisphere
Adjust to summer angle on	March 30	September 29
Adjust to winter angle on	September 12	March 14

These calculations are based on an idealized situation. They assume that you have an unobstructed view of the sky, with no trees, hills, clouds, dust, or haze ever blocking the sun.

More about aluminum extrusion materials

Aluminum comes in different alloys. A construction or structural alloy is an aluminum alloy designed for building structures, such as in the rails of a mounting system – examples of this type are 6005-T5 or 6106-T6.

Lower-grade aluminum like AL 6063 is most commonly used to build office partitions or window framing. It is not as strong, and you should be wary of a mounting system rail constructed using this material. There are different shop sign aluminum alloy application:

1: 6005 extrusion profiles and pipes, have strength greater than 6063 alloy structure, like a ladder, TV antenna, etc;
2: 6009 mainly used for car plate;
3: 6010 sheet: car body;
4: 6061 used for all kinds of industrial structural requires a certain strength, weld-ability and high resistance to corrosion, such as manufacturing truck, tower building, vessel, trams, furniture, mechanical parts, precision machining etc. used with the tube sheet, rod, bar section, panel;
5: 6063 industrial extruded aluminum profiles, construction profiles, irrigation pipes and extruded material for vehicle and rack, furniture, fencing, etc; 6: 6066 forgings and welding structure extrusion materials;
7: 6070 heavy welding structure and automobile industry used with materials and pipe extrusion; 8: 6101 buses with high-strength bars, electric conductor and cooling equipment etc;

For solar mounting system , aluminum alloy 6005 is usually supplied in tube or extruded form . It's most common temper is T5, this temper denotes that the material has been cooled from an elevated temperature for the shaping process and then artificially aged.
