The invention provides
solar cell film plating equipment and a film plating method thereof. In the prior art, a
solar cell can be transferred to electroplate liquid for
electroplating by using an externally connected
electroplating power supply or through a simple rolling wheel, so that the problems of
high probability of damage to the
solar cell and poor film plating quality exist. The solar
cell film plating equipment provided by the invention comprises a film plating slot, a to-be-plated solar
cell transmission module, and a film plating
light source, wherein the transmission module is provided with a plurality of upper rolling wheel and a lower rolling wheel which are arranged in a matched manner and transfer the solar
cell to be plated in an identical linear velocity, the solar cell to be plated forms an
electroplating loop with electroplating liquid through an upper rolling wheel, the solar cell to be plated is transferred into the film plating slot horizontally through the to-be-plated solar cell transmission module and is partly submerged into the electroplating liquid, the film plating
light source irradiates the light receiving surface of the to-be-plated solar cell and generate photoproduction electrical energy thereon, and the to-be-plated area of the to-be-plated solar cell is plated through the photoproduction electrical energy. In the invention, the reliability and the efficiency of the film plating are improved, the
scrap rate in solar cell film plating is lowered, and that the externally connected electroplating power supply is required can be avoided.
