NexTech Solutions Inc. and FAS Holdings Group LLC, working jointly as NexTech FAS, say an organic photovoltaic materials and process development company has ordered an Advantage Extrusion Coating system for integration into a solar-panel pilot production line.
NexTech FAS' Advantage Series coating systems, which are typically used in the manufacturing of flat-panel displays, are capable of precisely coating complex organic PV materials, even at submicron thicknesses, the companies say. This particular system, which will be installed at the client's U.S.-based facility, will include several custom features to specifically accommodate the client's proprietary process and materials and is designed to work in a fully automated and controlled environment.
In addition to this order, NexTech FAS has already received significant interest from other players in the photovoltaic market to implement NexTech FAS' know-how, technology and ability to develop custom solutions for companies in this industry.
