Home<\/a> \u00bb Industries<\/a> \u00bb Solar Panel Mounts <\/p>\r\n Solar panels are becoming increasingly common. You now see solar panels mounted on homes, businesses, billboards, and boats. If you are looking to make the best possible solar panel mounts, you want to consider roll forming. The main reasons you want roll formed solar panel mounts are speed, savings, and stability. At Roller Die + Forming, we are always working on improving our\u00a0speed of production<\/a>\u00a0to save our customers money while never compromising the stability of the final product!<\/p>\r\n Using roll formed parts for your solar panel mounts gives your business incredible precision and consistency. Roller Die + Forming can deliver countless solar panel mounts that will work perfectly with your solar panel systems every time.<\/p>\r\n At Roller Die + Forming, we distinguish ourselves from other manufacturers through our processes. Our solar panel mounts are produced using\u00a0roll forming<\/a>\u00a0and other metal manufacturing techniques. Some of the benefits include:<\/p>\r\n Precision and Quality<\/p>\r\n Roll forming makes it possible for us to design solar panel mounts that meet very tight tolerances. The solar panel mounts will be of high quality, uniform, and consistent all through. This is especially important when you’re covering acre after acre in panels – the tiniest mistake can result in a huge misalignment. That’s why quality is so important in solar mounting racks.<\/p>\r\n Cost Saving<\/p>\r\n Also, when producing solar panel mounts using roll forming techniques, no heat is involved. Our state-of-the-art custom-designed rollers are used to bend the material into their final shapes. This reduces energy and production cost while resulting in a stronger product that is more precise, especially over long runs.<\/p>\r\n Speed and Efficiency<\/p>\r\n Our solar panel mounts are produced through roll forming under high speed and require low labor demands. Due to the increased production speed and efficiency, it is best suited for higher volume productions. Likewise, we can incorporate additional processes such as notching or forming.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n When you work with Roller Die + Forming, you start by working with our engineering staff to review our inventory of standard tooling and shapes. Since we already have the tooling for many shapes, we are often able to make solar panel mounts with very little upfront cost.<\/p>\r\n Our engineers work with the client to find the best shapes to meet the client’s specifications. We also use our multi-gauged pre-punch tool to turn your design into ideal mounts that work for your entire solar panel system.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n Speed. Stability. Savings. These are three powerful reasons to choose the roll forming method to produce all structural components for mounting solar support systems. Plus, Roller Die’s strong and durable mounting hardware is manufactured using sound engineering principles. Power the future with Roller Die, creating custom-designed solar panel solutions that far exceed new industry standards.<\/p>\r\n Custom roll formed and welded shapes Simple to complex structures that fit exact specifications High-quality, corrosion-resistant metals Consult with our expert engineers to ensure mounting success<\/p>\r\n With these features coming standard for any customer who is looking to manufacture solar panel racks, it is no wonder we are an industry leader.<\/p>\r\n Challenge:<\/strong> A potential solar customer developing a new racking system came to Roller Die + Forming with a somewhat unique Zee profile, which unfortunately would require new custom tooling in the range of $65,000. This project certainly had unique specifications, in that the customer demanded total flexibility with hole\/slot locations on the Zee to accommodate multiple size modules and array layouts.<\/p>\r\n Solution:<\/strong> We showed the customer our library of standard Zee shapes as possible alternative candidates. The customer selected a 7.000\u2033 Web Zee as his critical component, commenting that the clips and attaching components would be easier to change – plus, be much less expensive to convert. After a couple of brainstorming conference calls to gain a better understanding of the customer’s expectations, our Technical Services team went to work. A multi-gagged (thanks to sub-dies) pre-punch tool set was designed to punch holes\/slots in the flat where needed, before the actual roll forming process began. Holes\/Slots could now be punched anywhere on the same horizontal plane down the Zee’s Web, Legs or Flanges on any part length.<\/p>\r\n Results:<\/strong> Designed and built in Roller Die’s vertically integrated tool room at a cost of only\u00a0$9,500, this low-cost investment has now produced Zee purlins for 34 solar projects for this customer partner. As of today, our projects with this customer have varied from 11,000 Zees delivered to the California desert, to small school jobs in the Midwest, to shipping truckloads up and down the East Coast!<\/p>\r\nRoll Forming Parts For Solar Panel Mounts<\/h2>\r\n
