It handles modules from 10 W to 600 W and works with TOPCon, BC, PERC and HJT cells. The machine runs in two modes: \u003cstrong\u003einline, connected to your stringer\u003c\/strong\u003e, or \u003cstrong\u003estandalone\u003c\/strong\u003e, fed manually from trays. That second mode is what makes it practical for smaller lines, pilot production and R\u0026amp;D work, where a full inline layout cannot be justified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePV Module Manufacturing · by Jerry, Ooitech\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Introduction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ooitech Layup and Bussing Machine is an all-in-one station for solar cell string layup and bus ribbon soldering. It is built around a \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-frequency electromagnetic welding\u003c\/strong\u003e system with automatic temperature control, and it takes cell strings either from a connected stringer or from operator-loaded trays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe machine consists of a loading transfer arm, fibre-optic sensing and mechanical positioning, a ribbon handling unit, the high-frequency welding head assembly, a cell string transfer section, a temperature control system, a junction box lead wire welding station, and an unloading transfer arm. A reserved port allows automatic loading to be added later without replacing the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Layup and Bussing in One Machine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn most lines, layup and bus soldering happen at two different stations with a buffer between them. Every transfer between stations is a chance to misalign a string, and every extra station costs floor space, operators and another set of handling hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombining the two steps removes that transfer. The string is positioned once, held, and the bus ribbons are soldered in the same fixture. In practice this shows up as three things:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFewer handling steps\u003c\/strong\u003e — one pick-and-place instead of two, which reduces the mechanical stress on cells and the chance of micro-cracks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmaller footprint\u003c\/strong\u003e — one station instead of two, which matters most when retrofitting an existing building.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTighter alignment\u003c\/strong\u003e — layup position and solder position are referenced to the same fixture, so ribbon-to-string registration does not drift between stations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Operating Modes: Inline or Standalone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the feature that separates the machine from a fixed inline tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMode 1 — Inline, connected to a stringer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe machine accepts cell strings directly from an upstream stringer through the automatic loading port. The loading transfer arm takes two strings at a time, the vision or mechanical positioning system aligns them, the ribbon handling unit cuts and feeds the bus ribbon to the set length, and the welding head solders the string ends or the mid-points. The unloading arm then places the finished string group onto a pre-positioned glass station on the conveyor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunning inline keeps throughput predictable and removes the manual loading step entirely. It is the right configuration for a line that already has a stringer and a conveyor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMode 2 — Standalone, manual tray loading\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same machine can run completely on its own. The operator loads strings from trays into the magazine station; everything after that — positioning, ribbon cutting, soldering, and transfer to the glass station — is automatic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandalone operation is what makes the machine usable in situations where a full inline layout does not make sense:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePilot and R\u0026amp;D lines testing new cell formats or new bill-of-materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmaller module assembly shops without a conveyor backbone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLines where the stringer and the layup station are deliberately kept apart for scheduling reasons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackup capacity: if the inline stringer stops, the machine keeps producing from trays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitching between the two modes is a configuration choice, not a different machine.
