microCELL™ Product Family

The microCELL production solutions, such as high performance laser processing for Laser Contact Opening (LCO) of high efficient PERC solar cells as well as laser dicing of full cells into half cells with Thermal Laser Separation (TLS-Dicing), have been designed to meet cell manufacturers‘ demands for achieving maximum throughput rates and yield while diminishing cell manufacturing costs.

The advanced microCELL MCS laser cutting system has been developed to meet the photovoltaic (PV) market’s demands for boosting module power output and service life by minimizing power losses and providing for an exceptionally high mechanical strength of cut cells. It provides a free choice of cell-cutting layouts that range from half to shingled without compromising throughput or yield.

Based on the proven TLS-Technology, which enables unmatched edge quality in solar cell cutting, the future-proof microCELL MCS fits into an intelligent, scalable production system with minimized efforts on upgrading by adding functionalities.

3D-Micromac‘s microCELL TLS is a highly productive laser system for the separation of standard silicon solar cells into half cells. The microCELL TLS meets cell manufacturers‘ demands by retaining the mechanical strength of the cut cells for improved module reliability and less power degradation over the whole module lifetime.

The ablation-free process guarantees an outstanding edge quality. Laser processing on-the-fly and an innovative handling concept enable maximum throughput and yield in the full-scale manufacturing of crystalline half cells.

3D-Micromac‘s microCELL OTF meets cell manufacturers‘ demands for increasing the efficiency of PERC solar cells, by precise surface structuring, low operating costs, and highest availability. The system is suitable to process mono- and polycrystalline silicon solar cells.
Laser processing on-the-fly and an innovative handling concept enable maximum throughput and yield in the mass production of crystalline solar cells. The contactless cell handling enables processing without surface defects or microcracks.
