Abstract
The invention relates to a device for industrially producing photovoltaic concentrator modules which consist of a module frame, a lens pane comprising a plurality of Fresnel lenses, a sensor-carrier pane, and an electric line guide, said device comprising the following features: a) a carriage (30) for retaining a module frame (1) in a tension-free manner by means of clamping elements (31) on the two longitudinal sides and stop elements (37) on the two transverse sides, these clamping elements (31) being adjusted by displacing and rotating a shift rod (32), b) a device (47) for punctually applying acrylic and linearly applying silicone (48) onto the support surfaces of the module frame (1), c) one device for laying the sensor-carrier pane (3) and one for laying the lens pane (2), these panes being conveyed in a tension-free manner using special suction devices (39) and being set down with a centrally-positioned, predetermined contact pressure, d) a device for measuring the position of each pane and for positioning the sensor-carrier pane (3) or lens pane (2), e) a device for finely-adjusting said lens pane (2) relative to CPV sensors (4) of the sensor-carrier pane (3), a voltage bei…
