LayTec X Link measurement systems predict the long-term stability of solar modules by evaluating the level of cross-linking in EVA solar module encapsulation: within seconds, non-destructively and accurately. It enables in-line monitoring of the solar module lamination process. Customized systems are available.

Features:

The X Link system enables fast and accurate evaluation of the level of EVA cross-linking after lamination. It can be integrated into any solar module production line, and offers 100% co verage for process control and quality assurance: - non-destructive method - testing time of seconds - in-line measurement capability module mapping option data output in % gel content multi-point measurement capability sturdy design for industrial application

Benets:

- no more scrapping of laminates - easy integration into existing production lines - feedback control of lamination process - gapless quality assurance

Performance and requirements

duration of measurement accuracy range measuring probe size working distance required temperature of laminate/module during measurement size of measurement head hardware type bus interfaces and others weight maintenance cycles power supply safety certicate data output CE LayTec cross-link metric (LXM), % gel content equivalent yearly check-up PLC based backbone contact, non-destructive

In-line measurement capability:

The measurement requires the module to have a temperature of 80 C or higher. Ideally, it is installed immediately after the lamination process. Optional heating stages are available for measurements further along the production line or for off-line measurements. During the measurement, physical contact to the back sheet is required.

Software:

The in-line version is based on highly robust industrial grade embedded system protocols and can be directly connected to production systems and SPC databases by a large variety of protocols along with clear user visualization for quick on-line inspection.
