Lamination defines BIPV module service life
Building-integrated photovoltaic glass is a laminate: glass, encapsulant film, solar cells and a backing layer are bonded into one structural panel. The laminating process has to protect fragile cells and, at the same time, deliver the optical clarity and weather resistance expected of a building facade.
Process requirements
- Uniform temperature: cells are sensitive to local hot spots, so heating zones must be even across the full glass width.
- Controlled pressure: pressure should be sufficient for full encapsulation without stressing the cells or the glass.
- Repeatable cycle: a continuous non-autoclave line keeps every module on the same recipe, which simplifies quality traceability.
From PVB / EVA / SGP to BIPV production
Our BIPV non-autoclave laminate machine applies the same continuous loading, heating and pressing, cooling and unloading flow used for architectural laminated glass, configured for module encapsulation.
