Solar Panels Measured by Sensors

The accurate measurement of solar panels comes in a new thin-film technology. By producing thin solar cells, through the advanced thin-film technology, the cells are positioned directly onto the carrier materials of glass, metal foil, or plastic film. The quality of the solar panel modules is then calculated through laser light technologies.

With the use of thin-film, the energy saving production costs dramatically decrease, while producing large solar cell areas. The non-contact, thin-film method allows for all incoming glass panes to be accurately measured for length, width, squareness, and thickness. Damage to the edges of the glass are also calculated to ensure the proper fit and placement of the sensors.

Laser lights are used during the production process, eliminating measurement errors and reducing the cost of processing defective parts.
