Zhejiang Hongchen Expands Capacity with a Further DEK Solar Metallization Line

Zhejiang Hongchen has confirmed the purchase of a further PV1200 photovoltaic metallization line from DEK Solar.

Commenting on the purchase, Hongchen General Manager, Xiang Xiao Long explained: "After purchasing the first platform, we discovered that the breakage rate was incredibly low. Thanks to an exceptional level of accuracy, the DEK technology just never breaks anything. Plus, while consistently high print quality means that our cell efficiencies are extremely high, a compact footprint enables us to optimise factory floor space. Added to this the fact that DEK could supply the platform in just a few weeks, rather than months, and the decision to purchase a second PV1200 line was incredibly easy! We’re delighted with the performance of the DEK system and look forward to enhancing our capacity to meet the growing demands of our customers.”

DEK’s Alternative Energies Business Manager, Darren Brown, commented: "We’re extremely pleased but not surprised at the results achieved for Zhejiang Hongchen by our PV1200 metallization solution. Enabling rising productivity, global support, exceptional accuracy, low cost-of-ownership and dramatically reduced lead-times, the PV1200 is an extremely competitive proposition. And best of all, it realises all of this without compromise! We look forward to continuing the strong working relationship we have developed with the team at Zhejiang Hongchen, supporting them as their business develops into the future.”
