The primary purpose of a stencil cleaning system is to remove lead and excess solder. Lead is a highly toxic substance and its disposal is regulated. Traditionally, the solar cell metallization process has been achieved through the use of mesh screens to print...
HOME / The role of stencil wiping in the photovoltaic industry - SCM INDUSTRIES BESS
A critical objective in the photovoltaics industry is to reduce the front-side shading of solar cells. One major factor contributing to this shading is the front contact grid, also known as fingers.
While various methods such as vacuum deposition, electroplating, and screen printing can be used to create these electrodes, screen printing remains the most widely adopted and cost-effective

In solar cell printing, precision stencils are replacing the conventional wire meshes or emulsion screens as a result of increasing demands for higher cell eficiency against lower costs in the industry.
Stencil cleaning is crucial in surface mount technology as it ensures accurate solder paste application, improves solder joint quality, reduces scrap and rework, prolongs stencil life, and ensures
Throughout the last 30 years, flatbed screen printing has established itself as the predominant metallization process for the mass production of silicon solar cells.
Analysis revealed that the screen printing technique tends to produce solar cell fingers that have a wave-like shape along the finger direction. Importantly, the top portion of the wave shape...
As stencil apertures shrink in size, more frequent wiping is needed to assure that stencils are free of excess solder paste that can hamper their process performance.
The purpose of this research is to study the wipe sequence, wipe frequency and wipe solvent(s) and how these factors interact to provide solder paste printing yield improvement.
