Bussing

Komax Solar offers a manual and an automatic bussing system for its integrated matrix machine. The manual version involves a station in which the solar matrix is inspected manually by an operator. The automatic station is designed for the processing of up to 20MW per station (with a longitudinal or lateral orientation).

The automatic station has two robots and produces the bus strips from a reel, trimming and forming the material as required. The station is designed to process matrix tabs projecting above and below the end of the solar cell matrix. An integrated optical monitoring system is used for inspecting the tabs at the end of each string and for determining the correct position of the bus strip for soldering. The bus strips are soldered on the spot in an induction soldering process that delivers repeatable top quality results.
