Photovoltaics
Vacuuum Coating Equipment & Expertise

Electricity is a prerequisite for prosperity and progress. And electrical energy from renewable sources such as photovoltaics has become an essential building block in the energy mix. According to all forecasts, photovoltaics will be expanded to a much greater extent in the coming years.

The focus will be on two factors: higher productivity and increasing the efficiency of converting sunlight into electricity. At the same time, this increase in productivity and efficiencies must be accompanied by resource-conserving use of the necessary materials.

 

Contribution to the expansion of photovoltaics

Our contribution is highly productive vacuum coating equipment, which our customers use to manufacture solar cells or solar modules. The systems are tailored to their requirements and are suitable for different materials and formats. And they are scalable, meaning that processes from research and pilot production can be transferred to larger plants for mass production.

Major international manufacturers of crystalline and thin-film solar modules use our equipment for their production. They benefit from our experience and expertise as market leader.

We work closely with our customers to develop the next generation of modules that will be even more efficient.
