February 8, 2011 - Solar Cell Inspection: Taking A Closer Look.
Forget about the days when an estimated global capacity of 25 MW was something to boast about; today, a single manufacturer can run multiple 25 MW production lines, routinely turning out 20,000 to 30,000 cells per day. Of course, fabrication is only half the battle. A product can't succeed unless it performs. That makes solar cell inspection, whether for quality assurance or process control, absolutely essential.
