A solar tracker is a device that orients a payloads can be toward the sun. Trackers are used to minimize the angle of incidence between the incoming sunlight and photovoltaic panel. This increases the amount of energy produced from a fixed amount of installed power generating capacity. In standard photovoltaic applications, it is estimated that trackers are used in at least 85% of commercial installations greater than 1MW from 2009 to 2012. This study is concerned about the structure design of a low coast and entry level dual axis solar tracker. This research purpose is to propose and verify a method to achieve higher product quality, lower costs, and far less physical testing. As a result of the new mechanism development, the volume of moving parts and the weight of main parts decreased by 46.8% and 20% respectively.
