PROJECT DESCRIPTION:American solar frame project

After received the inquiry from our customer.I send our designs to him.

Our client is doing new energy development in the United States.They have preliminary requirements for the product.He chose one of our designs and need some samples for it.

After discuss for the sample.Our customer want us to quote for 1000 and 10,000 panels.

For quantity order we need the specific processing drawings.Then our customer prepare the drawing for us.

The first drawing.

After the first drawing,our customer is on his holiday for about 3 months.I am sending some of our new machine and product to him between a few days.

Our product : Design ,Produce ,Assemble Solar Frame

After 3 months,we get connection again.Our customer is preparing the final design drawings.

The first final design

We have made a quotation according to the drawing above.

Then our client suggested that part of the design needed to be changed.We determined the final design with suggestion of our engineer and started the first batch of sample production after received .the deposit .(In order to keep the exterior beautiful, the connecting part will be replaced by 3m VHB Tape to connect the traditional screws).

After receiving the tape, we tested its stickiness

The first sample is prepared.

After received the sample,our customer test the frame.
After a pressure test of 500kg, our frame is partially deformed.
The tape tensile test results are also not strong enough.

According to the current customer requirements, we modified the design and make the aluminum alloy 6061 instead of 6063 to improve its performance by 20%, make the surface rougher to increase friction with the tape and rescheduled the test samples.
