No. of pages : 96

Publishing Date : 14 April 2025

Thin film solar cell equipment is a series of equipment for producing thin-film solar cells, which commonly includes Thin-film Panel Turn-key Production Line, Thin-film PVD, Thin-film PECVD, Thin-film LPCVD, Thin-film MOCVD, Laser Scriber Equipment, Thin-film Laser Etching Equipment, Ultrasonic Thin Film Cleaner, Thin Film Optical Inspection System, Thin Film Material Properties Analyzer, Thin Film Thickness Measurer, Thin Film Solar Simulator and others.

As the demand of thin film solar cell manufactures are different, most of thin film solar cell equipment are custom-designed and produced. The components of thin film solar cell equipment are different, but some key machinery such as PECVD is indispensable.

Worldwide, there are some professional equipment manufacturers can design and produce thin film solar cell equipment to meet the demand of thin film solar cell manufactures; but there are a few thin film solar cell manufactures will design and assembly thin film solar cell equipment for themselves (such as the world largest thin film solar cell producer, First Solar), by importing components or letting other enterprises produce key components for them.
