A compact diaphragm pump suitable for PV Industry
The main duty is slurry circulation and regeneration that is used in the process of cutting wafers.
The high-purity silicon, melted into blocks, is prepared in stacks, from which, in turn, very thin discs (wafers) are cut with the help of modern wire-cutting technology. The block is then sliced with a wafer saw (wire saw) and polished to form wafers. After cleaning and intensive final checks the mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline wafers form the basis for the production of solar cells. Wafers are cleaned with weak acids to remove unwanted particles, or repair damage caused during the sawing process.
- We believe our AODD range will become an international best seller among industries looking for a compact pump with high pump performance, low cost of ownership at a competitive price, says Håkan Ekstrand, Managing Director, Tapflo Group
