Hi,
I have a solar panel weighing 20 kgs mounted to a frame which resembles a see-saw. The panel is mounted to frame using ball bearings, so friction loss is minimum. A gear is connected to centre of frame which can turn the panel. I am using a stepper motor. What is the torque required?
Panel weight : 20kgs
Panel length : 1.5 meter
Gear ratio 28:1
