Cell Sorting Machine
Equipment Intro & Key Metrics
The Auto Cell EL+IV Sorter is dedicated equipment for mono/poly-Si cell sorting in the PV industry. It uses EL (Electroluminescence) imaging to detect micro-cracks and dark spots, and measures electrical parameters under simulated sunlight for classification. It handles cell sizes from 156 mm to 230 mm and delivers a throughput of about 3,000 pcs/h at a cycle time of 1.2 s in continuous mode, with a single-piece cycle available.

Industry Pain Points
Architectural Limitations: Fragmented Detection Dimensions, Inaccurate Results
Traditional equipment has a single detection function; multi-step logic led to accumulated errors, reducing sorting accuracy and comprehensiveness.
Low Detection Efficiency: Manual Intervention, Poor Continuity
Relies on manual load/unload and parameter adjustment; low efficiency and long changeover time for different cell specs, affecting production continuity.
Weak Adaptability: Poor Compatibility, High Iteration Cost
Adapts only to a single technology route and cell size, hard to meet diverse needs, requiring frequent equipment changes and high costs.
Single Value: Weak Linkage, Not Integrated into the Value Chain
Limited to basic sorting with poor linkage to upstream and downstream; data cannot empower line optimization or full-chain traceability.
FLEXEM Solution Architecture
Built on the FL8 series PLC (FL8-E16-D controller with FBS-CAN bus coupler module, prefabricated CPU, plug & play and detachable terminal block for easy maintenance) for motion and logic control, the FE9100M HMI (10.1" 16:9 TFT LCD, 1024×600, high performance with large memory) for visualization and operation, and FV5-R3 series servo drives (450W–750W, Bluetooth support, 12-bit analog ABZ encoder) paired with EAM series motors (750W, up to 6,000 rpm, 17/23-bit encoder, IP67 protection). Running on EtherCAT with the dedicated FB_YYX_Plane-XYR coordinate transform function block for YYX mechanism and cam synchronization, the architecture converts XY position information into YYX axis compensation values for precise position correction — delivering high-precision, high-efficiency cell sorting.
Core Advantages
Precision & Efficiency, Dual-Core Speed Boost
Integrated EL+IV dual-detection module for synchronous judgment; improves cycle time from 1.7 s to 1.0 s/pc, balancing precision and efficiency.
High Efficiency / Cost Reduction, Automation & HW Optimization
Smart automation ensures production continuity; a single PLC plus bus replaces multiple PLCs, significantly reducing development and wiring time.
Flexible Adaptation, Full-Scenario Compatibility
Covers multiple technology routes and cell sizes; modular custom design supports function upgrades, reducing equipment update costs.
IoT Enabled, Data Synergy & Remote O&M
Detection data empowers upstream and downstream optimization; IoT HMI enables cloud data, remote monitoring and program updates for easy maintenance.
