GTS-7

GTS-7 model reaches a production of 775 cycles/hour (700 cells/hour) and works with mono and polycrystalline cells of 5”, 6” and half cells of 6”; 2 and 3 busbar and the distance between cells is configurable between 2 and 50 mm. It has a robot and an artificial vision camera integrated that tests the breakages and busbars positioning, as well as the precise positioning of the cells by contour or busbars. In order to make the soldering, once the flux is applied on the cell using drop system, there is a progressive heating of the cells and next the machine makes the soldering by IR lamps with a precise control of the process by temperature (PID). The cycle is configurable. After this soldering process, there is a controlled cooling to minimize to its utmost the stress generated in the cells. This model has flip-over option for the produced strings, for their following positioning on the glass.
