The robot for image processing-assisted handling solution was mounted on the ceiling of the loading area of the coating system due to space constraints and has a reach of 1,000 mm. (Image source: AZUR SPACE Solar Power)

The flat vacuum gripping system, which can be quickly exchanged for different wafer sizes, reliably maintains the specified positioning accuracy of +/- 0.1 mm during the loading of the workpiece carriers. (Image source: AZUR SPACE Solar Power)

The camera system above the backlit alignment table detects the precise position of the wafer and transmits this information to the software. Based on this, the position and angle compensation are calculated, which must be applied to insert the wafer into the carrier nest. (Image source: AZUR SPACE Solar Power)

For turning the solar cells so that they can be coated on both sides, a flipping station is integrated into the handling system. (Photo: AZUR SPACE Solar Power)

Before the coated solar cells are placed back into the cassettes, the camera system checks whether the edges of the wafers are free of damage. (Photo: AZUR SPACE Solar Power)

The cosmos and the world of screws: both are practically infinite in size and continuously expanding. Special applications call for special screws – Ganter has them all.

Special Applications Require Special Screws – Beyond Typical Standards

In machine and plant construction, components are often attached with screws to allow for easy detachment later. But specific technical requirements or confined spaces often make typical screws unsuitable. The screw head may be too tall, for example, or its diameter too large. Ganter product group 3…
