– Order from international module producer received
Kahl am Main, February 17, 2012 – The SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES AG (SINGULUS) reports the sale of a processing machine for the production of CIGS/CIS thin-film solar cells. The coating plant was ordered by an international thin-film solar manufacturer and will be utilized for the set-up of a pilot production of CIGS/CIS modules. After the successful commissioning a further expansion of the module production is intended. Hence, the SINGULUS system meets the current demand in the photovoltaics industry for development and pilot machines to increase the efficiency of solar cells and to simultaneously reduce the production costs.
