Abstract

A method for constructing a photovoltaic (PV) substrate. A moving frame can be lowered towards a stack of back sheets and a back sheet of the stack of back sheets may be secured to the moving frame. The back sheet can be transferred from the moving frame to a vacuum table. An adhesive can be dispensed to the back sheet using an adhesive dispenser. At least one string may be placed onto the adhesive applied to the back sheet. The vacuum table can be rotated, and the back sheet can be released from the vacuum table onto a glass sheet.
