Kinematics has made its first shipment of the company’s ST Series actuators, specifically meant for single-axis solar trackers.

The company says the series features a dry bearing design that delivers more holding torque than its HE series, allowing tracking companies to use a smaller drive for the same application.

“We believe the ST series will become the de facto standard for single-axis tracker actuation and set the benchmark for reliability and performance for solar tracker manufacturers, solar EPCs, solar project owners, financiers and O&M providers,” says Adam Plesniak, CTO of Kinematics. 

“The main challenge was proving an improvement in performance over our HE series drive, which is already a robust, high-volume production drive. The HE series requires more maintenance and has less capacity per drive size than the ST. These challenges were overcome through hours of dedicated development, rigorous testing and detailed analysis.”

Texas Goes Blue

A friend from Texas writes: It’s been an interesting week! A lot to reflect on. And Texas seems to be the epicenter.  Folks are pretty flabbergasted over the defeat of all statewide Republican candidates (including state supreme court justices) and the election of a Democratic party-controlled state house.

Yes, Texas blew everyone’s mind.  I think what the GOP experienced was a double-whammy if you will.

Consumer prices are high, due at least in part to Trump’s inane and illegal war in Iran.  This is impacting the lives of working class Americans.

I’m pleased to be able to report that many people still have a conscience, which causes them to reject the GOP’s cruelty, dishonesty, dismissal of science, and criminality.

White Guys Not Really Catching On

As shown here, white men, especially uneducated white men, are still not able to see that Trump is terrible for America.

If the last two years didn’t change that, it appears that nothing will.

A Few Things in U.S. Politics that Don’t Make Sense

Published

on

The vast majority of Americans are thrilled that the midterms brought us the “blue tsunami,” but there are a couple of things that don’t really add up.  You may have noticed that:

The U.S. wants a random alcoholic Fox News “journalist’s” head on the plate for having orchestrated the war in Iran, when all he was doing was pursuing his loyalty to Donald Trump, the man who started this asinine and grossly illegal war.

There seems to be no effort to cause Trump, who tried to violently overthrow the U.S. federal government, to face accountability for his treasonous acts.

What’s up with the media? Is there a concerted effort to avoid the facts? What’s the problem with honesty, and telling Americans the truth? Isn’t this the clearest instance of gaslighting in our history? Are we now trying to pretend that Trump never existed?

If such a landslide victory against a would-be autocrat had happened anywhere else on Earth, that traitor would be in prison now, in most cases facing execution.
