GameChange Solar has broken all module install speed records for fixed-tilt racking systems with the patent-pending TwistClamp. In a timed study, two workers installed modules at a rate of one every 18.25 seconds or 670 per 6.8-hour workday. Even after reducing this rate by 33% to factor in worker fatigue, the rate of 447 per day is by far the fastest rate on any system and increases install speed 400% vs. typical nut and bolt mounting methods.

TwistClamps Increase Install Speed 400%

• 447 modules per worker day versus 100 with nuts and bolts
• One worker inserts and twists all preassembled TwistClamps into purlins
• Follow-up workers slide modules under TwistClamps
• Workers then drive the pre-attached serrated flange nyloc nuts to reach the required torque and simultaneously ground the modules.
• Modules always align even if posts and beams are far out of alignment since workers can slide modules north and south under TwistClamps
• No follow-up torquing operations required

Derick Botha, Chief Commercial Officer at GameChange Solar, stated: "Install speed is a critical consideration for customers as they seek to reduce total installed cost. The TwistClamp is an important breakthrough for fixed-tilt systems and significantly reduces installed cost for EPCs and Owners."
