Schiller Automation GmbH & Co. KG, a provider of production equipment for solar manufacturers, says it has been awarded contracts for a new factory automation facility.
Based on the Schiller design already in use in eight operating thin-film factories, the new contract expands the company's base of business in China. Schiller says it has engineered and delivered multiple lines using the proprietary BackBone concept, in which full-size glass substrates are handled in a central control region and can be handed off to multiple process steps.
