Product Overview
Compact Rotary Drive for Controlled Slewing Motion
The SC5 is engineered for applications that need precise rotary positioning, stable load holding and a compact 5-inch installation envelope.
This slewing drive combines a worm-gear slewing mechanism with a 12VDC motor interface for controlled low-speed rotation.
With 720 N·m output torque, 5450 N·m holding torque and ≤0.17° precision,
SC5 is a practical choice for solar trackers, antenna platforms and custom OEM rotary equipment.
Compared with larger SE-series drives, SC5 offers a smaller envelope while still delivering strong holding torque
for position retention under load — useful when space and weight are constrained.

FAQ
What does “5-inch” mean on SC5?
It refers to the compact slewing-drive size class. SC5 is designed for mid-compact single-axis rotary applications versus larger SE/SC models.
Can SC5 be used on solar trackers?
Yes. Output torque, holding torque and ≤0.17° precision make it suitable for many single-axis PV tracker designs — confirm panel area and wind load first.
Is the motor voltage fixed at 12V?
This drawing configuration is the 12RC family. Other voltages or motor packages can be discussed for OEM projects.
Can mounting and cables be customized?
Yes. Flange interfaces, motor options, cable length and feedback can be reviewed against your mechanical layout.
