As the global solar industry scales new heights, LEAPTING introduces a breakthrough in photovoltaic (PV) module installation with its Automatic Navigation PV Module Mounting Robot an intelligent system engineered for speed, accuracy, and terrain adaptability.
This fully integrated robotic solution is designed to automate the most labor-intensive phase of solar plant construction. Equipped with a high-clearance crawler chassis and advanced 3D SLAM mapping, the drive vehicle navigates complex terrains independently, detecting and avoiding obstacles while maintaining stable movement across utility-scale solar sites.
At the core of the system is an advanced installation robotic arm featuring eight vacuum suckers and precise pose recognition technology. This enables it to securely grasp and install PV modules with consistent accuracy. The robot operates at a high throughput, achieving an average mounting speed of one module per minute, making it ideal for large-scale deployments where time and precision are critical.
Supporting this capability is a specially engineered module-flipping and rotating trailer, which ensures each panel is optimally oriented for installation. The trailer accommodates a load of up to 1.5 tons and offers 180° horizontal rotation and 90° vertical flipping, allowing seamless handling of modules regardless of ground or rack orientation.
Key technical advantages include:
- Autonomous Drive with SLAM + Visual Navigation
- 400Ah LiFePO4 Battery with 3-phase 380V/20A charging interface
- Mounting Height Adjustability up to 2 meters
- Compact turning radius of 5.5 meters, enabling mobility in constrained sites
- Wide operational temperature range from -20°C to 60°C
- Modular deployment: easily assembled on-site or used as a mobile unit
- No auxiliary equipment or routine maintenance required
Safety and reliability are embedded in every aspect of the design. A flashing warning light enhances on-site visibility, while the robotic systems operate with minimal human oversight, significantly reducing the risk of installation errors or injury.
Deployed globally—including in Australia’s high-output solar farms—this robotic solution not only accelerates construction timelines but also ensures consistent installation quality, improved worker safety, and reduced overall cost.With this innovation, LEAPTING reinforces its commitment to transforming solar construction through automation, delivering smart, scalable solutions aligned with the industry’s pursuit of efficiency and carbon neutrality
