Order Focus: Oerlikon sells multiple SOLARIS systems to European solar cell manufacturer

A European crystalline solar cell manufacturer has placed a large order for numerous SOLARIS systems.  Introduced to the market only weeks ago, the product is set to be delivered within the coming year and will increase the customer's production capacity in North America.

Andreas Dill, Head of Oerlikon Systems says, "Our original strategy of offering a compact, cost-effective platform with single wafer handling is proving to be a very popular solution with Photovoltaic (PV) manufacturer."

Oerlikon System's focus is now expanding to include not only Semiconductor and Coating Technologies but also nanotechnology applications.

SOLARIS is claimed to offer low cost of ownership, due to its very small footprint and easy integration into existing production lines.

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
