  • electrical insulation > 1 GOhm
  • ablation speed (up to 50 cm²/s)
  • high throughput with 60 panels/h
Task

selective deletion of CIS thin film layer

JENOPTIK - VOTAN G
Selective Deletion for CIS/CIGS Thin Film Solar Modules with Brushes

Machine Solution
JENOPTIK-VOTAN™ G with brushes

  • parallel-selective ablation of the long substrate sides by a one time overpass of rotating brushes
  • selective ablation of the short sides by a one time overpass of rotating brushes
  • measurement of the reflection and transmission values of the processing area for quality control
Advantages

  • no molybdenum damages
  • process combinable with the edge ablation process
