Spherical Plain Bearings Ensure Efficient Operation of 50MW Solar Power Plant in Spain

More than one thousand high precision plain bearing rod ends from the Schaeffler Group are enabling the efficient operation of the Andasol solar power plants in southern Spain, currently the largest parabolic trough solar power station in the world.

The Andasol 1 solar power plant, which went on line in mid-2009, uses a total of 1,248 ELGES hydraulic rod ends from Schaeffler. The function of the bearings is to support several hundred hydraulically adjustable, parabolic troughs, positioning them with millimetre precision and ensuring that the troughs continuously follow the sun. The rod ends are therefore directly responsible for the plant
