A Solar Module undergoes several manufacturing process quality tests. Some of the module assembly steps are:
- Cell Testing and Sorting: The preliminary step in module manufacturing is testing the individual photovoltaic cells for their electrical parameters of Current and Voltage.
- Cell Cutting: Controlled laser cutting equipment will serve the purpose of cell cutting for a designed size to achieve desired wattage range of modules.
- Front Soldering: Connecting the interconnecting copper leads to the cut cells.
- Stringing: Process of interconnection between thetabbed cell’s leads of solar photovoltaic cells in series by bus ribbon in a pre-designed die.
- Back Sheet and EVA Cutting:Process of cutting the back sheet and EVA as per the module design.
- Lay-Up: The laminating materials are laid up in a particular sequence and certain characteristics are measured with electronic equipment.
- Lamination: The interconnected solar PV cells are laminated with glass along with EVA and back sheet.
- Curing: Is the process where themodules undergo a curing process.
- Trimming: Trimming is the process where the excess polymer sheets are trimmed off from the edge with the help of a knife.
- Framing: The laminates are enclosed in an aluminium frame of desired size with a glass in front by using RTV or foam tape as a sealant/sealing agent. This process is done manually or by an automated machine.
- JB Fixing:Fixing a junction box and connection cables to rear side of each polycrystalline solar module comes next. This enables easy electrical integration among modules at the installation site.
- Cleaning: The modules are cleaned using a mild chemical solution.
- Electrical Testing: It is the process with which all the electrical parameters of the modules are tested in Sun Simulator.
