Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a solar cell, in which the solar cell is printed by the screen printing method in a plurality of production steps.
  • flat screen printing units Two types are currently used in screen printing technology: flat screen printing units and rotary screen printing units.
  • a printing direction is generally referred to in flat screen printing units, the direction of movement of the doctor over the print material.
  • rotary screen printing units the printing direction is defined by the transport direction of the print material.
  • the printing pastes are highly viscous liquids, strong adhesion forces, which initially hold the screen after the squeegee has traveled over a point to be printed, on the printed material (solar cell).
  • the detachment is made possible by the relatively strong tension of the sieve.
  • the sieve jump requires a certain amount of time which depends on various printing parameters (paste, screen texture, printed image). The time required for the Siebabsprung is an important factor, since the printed matter must not be moved until it is done safely. This is another reason why it is customary today to move the screen upwards (away from the print material) before the further transport of the print material, which promotes the screen skip.
  • the Siebabsprung turns out to be difficult whenever a printed image on the entire width of the object without interruption to print, such as the full-area backside printing or the busbars, or the fingers in solar cells.
  • Individual interruptions of the printing structure such.
  • the many individual fingers when printing the solar cell front side simplify the Siebabsprung when they are printed in Rakelschulsraum.
  • the printing of the busbars and the fingers for the front side contact so the printing of the solar cell front side, technically represents the biggest challenge.
  • the positioning of the solar cell for alignment of the printing screen and the Rakelmonysraum is therefore optimally chosen for this process step as far as possible.
  • the fingers of the solar cell front side are printed in the direction of movement of the doctor blade.
  • the busbars on the back side of the solar cell are aligned transversely to the fingers of the solar cell front side.
  • this object is achieved in a particularly simple and surprising manner by a method of the type mentioned above in which the solar cell and the printing direction are aligned for at least one first printing operation in a first orientation to each other and in at least one further printing operation in another Orientation aligned with each other.
  • the solar cell 25 is thus arranged for at least one first printing operation in a first orientation to the doctor movement direction of a doctoring or transport direction of the solar cell and in at least one further printing operation in a different orientation to the doctor movement direction of a doctor blade or the transport direction of the solar cell.
  • This dimensional measure ensures that the solar cell is optimally aligned with the direction of doctor movement or transport direction for each printing operation, in particular is aligned to print elongated structures, so that the disadvantages described above can be largely avoided at Siebabsprung.
  • the printing cycle is shortened considerably.
  • the productivity of the plant on which the process is carried out is increasing.
  • the quality of the individual printing processes increases.
  • the advantages of this new method apply to flat screen printing units in the same way as for rotary screen printing units.
  • the solar cell to be printed is rotated by 90 ° before at least one printing operation.
  • the solar cell is brought in a different orientation to the doctor blade movement direction or transport direction in comparison to the preceding printing operation.
  • elongated structures arranged perpendicular to previously imprinted structures may be applied in the same blade advance direction as the elongate structures applied in the previous printing operation.

  • the solar cell is detected with a gripper before at least one printing operation and is aligned with respect to the printing direction.
  • a Bemoulli gripper can be used.
  • the solar cell is rotated by 90 ° by the gripper before the third printing process in which the solar cell front side is printed.
  • the productivity of a plant in which the process is carried out can be increased if, in at least one printing operation, several solar cells are printed simultaneously. Preferably, several solar cells are printed simultaneously in all printing processes. This means that several solar cells, in particular by a Bernoulli gripper, are reoriented before at least one printing operation.

  • the printing direction is again indicated by an arrow 21. This means that the printing direction 18, 21 and orientation of the solar cells 10, 11 were the same in both printing processes.
  • FIG. 3 shows a plan view of the front side 25, 26 of the solar cells 10, 11.
  • the solar cells 10, 11 are rotated relative to the illustrations of Figures 1 and 2 by 90 °.
  • This could fingers 27, 28 are applied in the printing direction 29 in a third printing process, wherein the printed as a silver paste fingers 27, 28 are offset from the busbars 14 to 17 of the solar cell rear side by 90 °.
