3. Innovative designs
Novel measurement process simplifies
machine operation and user interface
Innovative design concept with a lamp drawer
reduces lamp changeover time to <2 min
(downtime)
Efficient temperature control reduces the cycle
time to 1 sec (depending on measurement
process)
New generation electronic load increases
measurement accuracy
All mechanical and electrical interfaces are
standardized to facilitate integration
System design
SoftTOUCH
ultrathin unibody contacts for busbar
cells, reduces shadowing
The unique GridTOUCH
solution, allows accurate
measurement of busbarless cells
Adapted contact material and design
guarantees several millions of contact cycles
Controlled and distributed contact pressure
minimizes the stress on the cell improving
the yield
Automated and manual versions available
