Solution

The machine forms strings of cells which are automatically available in their definitive position on the base of the module. The modular built system is claimed to be robust, flexible and ergonomic with easy maintenance as well as fast diagnostics. The TS1200 uses an infrared light technology soldering process to offer easy maintenance, model change and diagnosis. Furthermore, TS 1200 PLUS is claimed to have superior cell loading autonomy and has greatly lessened installed power and air consumption.

Applications

Capable of handling 5” and 6” wafers for cell to module assembly.

Platform

The Tabber & Stringer TS 1200 has the following dimensions; (W x Lx H):6000mmx3200mmx2500mm; weight: 4000kg. The power consumed is 10kW/H the power installed is the 31kW. It needs air consumption with 750Nl/min. The cell handling is through Scara Robot and the cell alignment through vision system (CDD Camera).
