The importance of manufacturing execution systems in the growing PV industry

As PV manufacturing ramps up across the U.S. and Europe, manufacturing execution systems (MES) offer advantages to an efficient and effective process. In this pv magazine Webinar, we are joined by experts from Kontron AIS, one of the leading MES providers for solar cell and module production.

We will review trends in PV manufacturing and their significance for data management and learn about MES functions that are needed today for solar cell and module production. Robin Schubert, product manager factory automation, and Frank Tannhäuser, senior sales manager factory automation from Kontron AIS will reveal the value of production data and software in an advanced manufacturing site and offer practical project examples for the use cases of MES.

Manufacturers will learn the benefits of high-performance data handling and operating effective production control software. Kontron AIS will demonstrate the efficacy of its virtual wafer tracking, equipment performance reporting, and production order management for an increasingly automated manufacturing process.
