April 30, 2013 – With a proven availability at over 95%, the system ensures stable production 24 hours a day, seven days a week. "Our competitors machines only achieve the per-formance of STRINGER TT1200 HS with two tracks. We are offering our custom-ers a solution which is currently unique and successful on the market in terms of speed, availability and breakage rates," says Stefan Rosskopf, CEO of the team-technik Group.

1400 cycles/hour and extremely low breakage rates

teamtechnik uses a unique design of hold-down device in its systems to separate the actual soldering process from the cell-handling process. This allows teamtechnik to ensure 1400 cycles/hour, with a cycle time of 2.5 seconds with just one track. This hold-down device also ensures a safe process and perfect string geometry. At the same time, it guarantees extremely low breakage rates – from 0.1-0.3%, de-pending on the type of cell.

24-hour support

teamtechnik Group has sold stringer systems with a total production capacity of

9 GWp, and is therefore market leader in China as well as worldwide. The company guarantees its customers 24-hour support anywhere in the world. "We can build one machine every day. None of our competitors can achieve this. We can deliver quickly and at an excellent price-performance ratio," says Stefan Rosskopf, elabo-rating on the customer-oriented service offered by teamtechnik.

Experienced in BC, MWT, 4-busbar and half-cells

The distinguishing feature of the STRINGER TT 1200 HS is its modular and stan-dardized structure. This makes it possible to adapt new cell technologies to the system which has become widely established throughout the world. teamtechnik specialists have successfully tested and optimized BC, MWT, 4-busbar and half-cells plus adhesive technologies in the companys own center of competence and brought them into series production. The first systems have already been shipped. The center of competence finds the best soldering and connection options for stan-dard and special cells and optimizes them further – a service much appreciated by customers worldwide.
