Lay-up
In the lay-up station, strings of soldered cells, glass plates and foils are placed on top of one another automatically after alignment with transfer equipment. The alignment has to be accurate to enhance solar-module efficiency. Each cell and glass plate is inspected before modules are assembled.
In the lay-up process in which large loading robots are used, sensing and control is required to protect operators from turntables and lifting or handling robots for large glass plates.
