LineWorks MES Solar

Driving Efficiency and Innovation in Solar Manufacturing

The photovoltaic industry is evolving rapidly, requiring manufacturers to stay agile and adaptable to meet both current and future market demands. To thrive in this dynamic landscape, you need a software solution that seamlessly supports your operations—from raw material processing to cell and module manufacturing. LineWorks MES Solar by camLine offers a comprehensive and scalable solution tailored for solar (PV) manufacturing.

Scale from Lab to Gigafactory

To accelerate time-to-market, companies scale up gigafactory operations to meet growing demands. Shifting from laboratory development to stable, high-volume fabrication, such as in a gigafactory, marks a crucial step in the production processes, which involves transitioning from small-scale testing to large-scale manufacturing.

In the solar manufacturing industry, for example, running 3 GW factories would mean managing:

  • 5 million modules per year
  • 14,000 modules per day
  • 300 million solar cells a year
  • 800,000 solar cells per day

This immense volume of data requires robust tracking and analysis. LineWorks MES Solar seamlessly integrates with high-mix PV equipment, enabling manufacturers to collect, analyze, and maintain complete traceability. With this solution, every module and solar cell produced can be accurately tracked and traced.
