Solar-LIT Intelligent PV Module Installation Robot Records 124.7 Modules per Hour in Xinjiang Field Test
Release time: 2026-08-19 10:52:39.230
At the site of the China Three Gorges (CTG) Xinjiang Ruoqiang 8.5GW Mega PV Base Project, several leading domestic PV module installation robot manufacturers competed in a live head-to-head field trial. Solar-LIT’s PV module installation robot successfully completed continuous operational validation, achieving an average installation efficiency of approximately 124.7 modules per hour and ranking #1 overall in performance.

Project Owner Verification Letter documenting the Ruoqiang field test.
212 PV modules installed | 102 Minutes of actual operating time |
124.7 PV modules per hour | 47%–61% Higher than other valid comparison results |
How the Installation Rate Was Calculated
The test organizer used the same metric for all valid participating solutions: completed modules divided by actual operating time.
Using this method, the Solar-LIT system’s average installation rate was approximately 47% to 61% higher than the other valid results recorded during the same comparison.
Six Consecutive Batches Documented Stable Work Cycles
The Solar-LIT robot completed six consecutive installation batches. Each of the first five full batches covered 36 PV modules and took 14, 19, 17, 18 and 18 minutes, respectively.
Project Owner Verification Focused on Four Capabilities
The project owner’s written verification highlighted the Solar-LIT system’s performance in the following areas:
01 Construction efficiency | 02 Continuous-operation capability |
03 Human–machine collaboration | 04 Site engineering adaptability |
An Intelligent Installation System for Utility-Scale PV Projects
The Solar-LIT Intelligent PV Module Installation Robot is a construction-stage robotic system designed to combine module handling, path planning, positioning and installation in a coordinated workflow.
