Bürkle’s Ypsator is Lamination on a high level

Product Briefing Outline:

With the multi-opening laminator Ypsator^® Bürkle sets trends in the solar module production.

Problem:

Manufacturers are facing more and more the decline of module prices. Improving the productivity of the module production lines and the reduction of the operating costs resulting in lower costs per module is what is important.

Solution:

The multi-opening lamination systems can be adjusted to the capacity requirements of the customers very flexibly by adjusting the number of openings. A production capacity per line per year of e.g. 100 MWp is very easy to achieve with such a system. This capability is realized on extremely small production surfaces.

The 3-step process from Bürkle has revolutionized the lamination process and permits not only a higher production capacity with considerably reduced cycle times, but also the production of new materials due to the high flexibility of the concept and the selection of parameters, which could not be produced by means of the conventional machine concepts at all or only with considerably increased efforts.

In case of glass-glass modules Bürkle was the first who offered a special 3-step lamination concept which avoids an overpressure at the edges and supplies the heating of the modules from both sides. This 3-step process enables stress-free lamination and minimizes glass breakage at high plant output rates.

Moreover the entire Bürkle lamination systems are equipped with thermal oil heating systems which ensure a homogeneous temperature distribution on the entire useful lamination area.

Applications:

The single- and multi-opening lamination lines from Bürkle are used to manufacture crystalline and thin-film solar modules.
