Background
At present, a metal electrode is used as an important form for collecting photoproduction current of a solar cell, and during production, a wet metal electrode is formed by screen printing of wet metal slurry, then low-temperature hot melting and solidification are carried out on the wet metal electrode through a chain sintering furnace, and then high-temperature sintering and cooling are carried out to form the metal electrode with good ohmic contact. In the prior art, when a battery piece passes through a channel of a chain sintering furnace, metal electrode contact areas and metal electrode non-contact areas on the front and back of the whole battery piece are baked by heat of the chain sintering furnace, and the internal defects of the battery piece are amplified by the high temperature, and the passivation effect of a silicon nitride film and an aluminum oxide film on the front/back of the battery piece is damaged, so that the conversion efficiency of the battery piece is influenced. On the other hand, the chain type sintering furnace has long equipment line body, occupies large space, can meet the sintering process requirement of the metal electrode only by continuously electrifying and heating, and has high power consumption and energy consumption.
