Press Release
Combination of LINEA and SINGULAR Machines Accepted for the Serial
Production of Solar Cells
Kahl am Main, July 12, 2010 - A European solar cell manufacturer accepted a
LINEA texturing machine of SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES' (SINGULUS) subsidiary
STANGL as well as an inline coating machine of the SINGULAR type for the
anti-reflective coating of silicon solar cells with an additional
integrated inline machine for the wet-chemical treatment of crystalline
solar cells. Accordingly, SINGULUS realized the first installation of a
so-called front-end system.
With the combination of phosphor cleaning and anti-reflective coating two
important processing steps were integrated into a fully-automated process.
The anti-reflective layer is an important element in the production process
of solar cells and ties directly to the value-added chain from STANGL's
LINEA machine.
LINEA is an inline machine for wet-chemical cleaning and etching of solar
cells with automated horizontal product transport. Integrated and combined
with the anti-reflective coating the LINEA machine removes phosphor and
glass residuals from the doting (including of atoms on the existing silicon
structure) of the cells. After the wet-chemical process the silicon solar
cells are automatically forwarded to the SINGULAR for vacuum coating.
This installation and commissioning of a combined SINGULUS and STANGL
production machine for silicon solar cells is another example and important
integration step for the automation and cost reduction of modern cell
manufacturing.
