Spire offers automated Spi-Laminator™ photovoltaic laminators that produce modules up to 450 cm x 230 cm. These laminators bond multiple layers of materials together with thermo-plastic or thermosetting films, such as ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) polymer. The processing chamber of each laminator has temperature, vacuum and atmospheric pressure capabilities, which are independently controlled to provide optimum processing conditions for particular materials and configurations including laminating glass superstrate, double glass, substrate, or flexible modules.
Spire's automated laminators can be integrated into your fully automated module production line, or operated in manual mode. In automatic mode, a programmed process sequence consistently produces high quality modules and offers automated loading and unloading of modules. In manual mode, the controls can be operated as desired.
