For the loading and unloading of wafer carriers, Montech has developed a conveyor that ensures soft and easy handling.
DuPont Circuit & Packaging Materials announces the commercial availability of DuPont ‘Kapton’ polyimide films
The InnoLas ILS TT laser processing system is designed to execute a variety of laser processing techniques such as Selective Emitter, Contact Opening, Junction Isolation, LFC, EWT and MWT to achieve improved cell efficiencies. A system for production scale manufacturing as well as pilot line research and development, the system is equipped with a high speed turntable and custom tooling to fit specific processing steps.
High-purity fluorine gas (F2) is the highest performing cleaning gas available. Onsite generation of the gas has been developed by Linde, delivering high-purity F2 on demand and at low pressure, eliminating the need for large-volume/high-pressure storage and ensuring safe and reliable supply to CVD process tools.
STMicroelectronics has released details of a patented high-efficiency circuit and dedicated optimized power components. ST’s new design, called BC2 (Back-Current Circuit) is claimed to produce cost savings while helping designers comply with the highest power-efficiency standards. The new circuit and power components are ideally suited for boost or buck converters, which are power devices that are usually used in solar inverters.
DuPont Performance Polymers has tailored its portfolio of thermoplastic materials and design knowledge to the needs of the photovoltaic industry, including the CPV and CSP sector. DuPont has developed two specific grades of ‘DuPont Rynite’ polyethylene terephtalate (PET) that are claimed to reduce the total cost of manufacturing, assembling and installing photovoltaic systems.
Vacon has entered the solar inverter market with the Vacon 8000 SOLAR inverter series. The power range is 10 – 1000 kW. Vacon 8000 SOLAR is based on proven technology used in demanding wind energy and industrial applications.
Delivering an alternative to high-temperature solder processes, Henkel has developed Hysol Eccobond CA3556HF, a silver-filled electrically conductive adhesive designed to offer fast cure at low temperature. The material is also designed for high-throughput production processes and applications that dictate high peel strength, such as the assembly of PV modules.
Product Briefing Outline: Suntech Power has introduce ‘Reliathon’, an industry-first integrated solar platform combining product and business-term innovations to lower costs and accelerate the path to grid parity with the development of utility-scale solar plants. Reliathon is claimed to reduce total system costs as much as 10%, with 13.8% more power warranted over the lifetime of the system.
Soliant Energy has launched its next generation CPV commercial rooftop solar energy solution, the SE-1000X. The SE-1000X features eight CPV modules per tracking panel and delivers 504W. This high power coupled with the integrated ‘TipTilt Tracking’ is claimed to generate the greatest amount of energy, at the lowest price per kWh (kilowatt) for commercial rooftop installations. The SE-1000X maximizes energy production per rooftop square foot when compared to flat-panel solar rooftop solutions.
