This high-power radiator – the only one of its kind in the world so far – consists of 149 radiators, each with the light power of a large cinema projector. Together, they generate light intensity corresponding to at least 10,000 times the intensity of natural solar radiation measurable on Earth’s surface. Three Embedded PCs connected with 447 stepper motor terminals from Beckhoff enable highly precise alignment of the individual radiators.| PC Control 03 | 2017
