The teamtechnik Group, international market leader in the stringer technology segment, presents its new system generation at SNEC PV 2012: the STRINGER TT1200 HS which solders solar cell strings in a 2.5 second cycle on just one track. It thus outpaces its predecessor by 200 cycles and is currently the fastest single-track stringer system on the global market. A single track means higher throughput per soldering process, less complexity, a lower requirement for replacement parts and fewer operators. With availability at over 95%, the system ensures stable production 24 hours a day, seven days a week. “Our competitors’ machines only achieve the performance of STRINGER TT1200 HS with two tracks. We are offering our customers a solution which is currently unique on the market in terms of speed, availability and breakage rates,” says Stefan Rosskopf, CEO of the teamtechnik Group.
teamtechnik will be giving a live production demonstration at the trade fair in Shanghai, on stand E3 250. Every day at 10 am, 12 noon, 2 pm and 4 pm, the new stringer TT1200 HS will be soldering high-quality solar cell strings with IR light technology. teamtechnik specialists will provide a commentary on the whole process and highlight important system features.
Success with single-track technology
teamtechnik uses a unique design of hold-down device in its systems to separate the actual soldering process from the cell-handling process. This allows teamtechnik to ensure 1400 cycles/hour, with a cycle time of 2.5 seconds with just one track. This hold-down device also ensures a safe process and perfect string geometry. At the same time, it guarantees ex-tremely low breakage rates – from 0.1-0.3%, depending on the type of cell.
