SolarModul EL-inline

Electroluminescence testing system for the inspection of solar modules in production processes.

The SolarModule EL-inline is based on the same platform as the SolarModule EL-lab and the SolarModule EL-basic. The key difference is ease of integration at different points in the production process.

Special features:

  • Easy to operate
  • Fast inspections
  • High resolution

Available Options:

  • Automatic image processing
  • Intergated barcode scanner
  • Automatic contact unit
  • Automatic de-contact unit
  • Integration interfaces Profibus, CC Link, and others

Simple roller conveyors are all that is required to load and unload the system automatically with non-laminated, laminated, or framed modules. The system is available as short edge leading and as long edge leading configuration, so the SolarModule EL-inline can be integrated in both types of conveying systems.The electroluminescence images can be judged manually or through automatic image processing software.

Available Configurations:

  • Pre lamination inspection
  • Post lamination inspection
  • Final inspection

Contacting for the "testing before lamination" and "testing after lamination" versions can be fully automated or performed manually. For the "testing of framed modules" version, contacting is performed manually and de-contacting can be automated.

The use of an electroluminescence inspection before lamination allows defective cells to be repaired before they are laminated. The number of defective or less efficient modules can be reduced significantly in this manner.
