Aerotech has launched a new range of high precision electromechanical automation systems for professional laser scribing photovoltaic panels and flat panel professional displays. With travel up to 2.5 m, speeds to 3 m/sec and acceleration to 5 g, the SolarScribe features high performance direct-drive linear motor technology for maximum production throughput and for complete application flexibility includes a choice of air bearing manufacturers and mechanical bearing systems in split axis or gantry configurations to match the customers’ performance and budget requirements.
The range is supplied complete with Aerotech’s advanced Automation A3200 motion and machine control system that features dedicated commands such as PSO which adjust the customer’s laser pulse frequency to precisely match scribing speed and dynamic position – optimising quality, and further boosting throughput performance.
Each SolarScribe includes an integrated cable management system and to enable even higher production yields, Aerotech can add multiple scanning and/or step axes, vertical and rotary correction axes along with machine base/isolation systems, and control enclosures.
