Abstract – The main objective of our project is to design and fabricate a dual axis solar tracking system. Solar panels are one of the useful innovations in converting the sunrays falling on it into useful electrical energy. But the greatest disadvantages are that this panel once installed, cannot be tilted. Hence the amount of sunrays falling on it will be maximum for a certain time and minimum after the certain time. Hence this project is built in an idea of eliminating this disadvantage so that the sunrays are falling on the panel all the time and the power generation is maximum throughout the day. Simple components such as the motor, spur gear, lead screw etc. are used in the fabrication of this project. The low cost of the project makes the project more feasible and hence can be installed in almost all places and the power generation can be done. The amount of power generated depends upon the rate of sunrays falling on it and the capacity of the panel. The parts of our project are designed in the Creo software and are assembled and is fabrication part is carried out.
