Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of diamond wire baseline alignment for solar photovoltaic cell panel silicon wafer cutting, and specifically relates to a tungsten-based diamond wire baseline alignment method and system for photovoltaic cell panel silicon wafer cutting. Background Art

[0002] The production of solar photovoltaic panels is a complex process, one of which is slicing, which is to use cutting equipment to cut silicon ingots and silicon rods into thin slices, namely silicon wafers. The commonly used silicon wafer thickness is between 180-220 microns. The cutting wires used in wire cutting mainly have the following types and characteristics:

[0003] Traditional steel wire is usually copper-plated steel wire. In multi-wire cutting processing, the steel wire acts as a carrier, driving the silicon carbide abrasive through high-speed movement, moving between the steel wire and the crystal rod to achieve cutting of silicon crystal materials.

[0004] Diamond wire, a layer of 0.001-0.05mm diameter diamond particles is solidified on the surface of the ultra-fine metal base line. The working principle is to use the high hardness and wear resistance of diamond to cut silicon ingots or silicon rods through the high-speed movement of the wire saw, which can achieve high-precision and high-efficiency cutting. The main parameters are that the diameter of the mother wire is generally between 40 microns and 400 microns.

[0005] The importance of diamond wire baseline straightening. If the baseline of the diamond wire is bent or not straight during the production process, it will cause uneven force on the diamond wire during the cutting process. This will not only affect the cutting accuracy and efficiency, but may also cause uneven cutting surface and even wire breakage, affecting product quality and production progress.

[0006] Straightening methods include mechanical straightening and heat treatment straightening. Mechanical straightening usually uses special straightening equipment to apply a certain external force to the baseline, so that it passes between rollers or molds, and uses mechanical force to correct the curvature of the baseline. This method is suitable for diamond wire baselines with larger diameters and can quickly and effectively perform preliminary straightening of the baseline.

[0007] Heat treatment straightening: For some baselines made of special materials, heat treatment can be used. The baseline is heated to a certain temperature and then, under specific cooling conditions, the internal stress of the baseline is released and redistributed, thus achieving the purpose of straightening. This method can achieve relatively precise straightening without damaging the material properties of the baseline. Currently, the main method of heat treatment straightening is to heat the baseline by means of thermal radiation. For the selection of the thermal radiation source, infrared lamps are selected as the radiation source in the existing technology, or a heating furnace is used, and the thermal radiation generated by the heating elements inside can act uniformly on the baseline. For such heating methods, the baseline is usually placed in a closed or low-convection environment to reduce heat dissipation, such as heating the baseline in a heating furnace or in a space with a heat preservation cover. The method of heating and straightening the baseline in the existing technology has low heating efficiency, relatively complex equipment, and high environmental requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide a tungsten-based diamond wire baseline straightening method and system for cutting silicon wafers of photovoltaic panels.

[0013] The third step is to adjust the wire pressing wheel to make the tension meet the requirements.

[0014] The fourth step is to apply power to the first heating section. Apply voltage between the A conductive wheel and the B conductive wheel through a wire to make the current reach the specified value; after adjustment, cut off the power.

[0015] The fifth step is to apply power to the second heating section. Apply voltage between the B conductive wheel and the C conductive wheel through a wire to make the current reach the specified value; after adjustment, cut off the power.

[0016] Step 6: Energize and heat the two heating sections.

[0017] Step 7: Start the motors on the wire pay-off component and the wire winding and paying-off component simultaneously, and keep the motors at these two locations driving the wire pay-off spool and the wire winding spool to run synchronously.

[0018] According to requirements, the number of heating sections can be increased or decreased.

[0019] According to requirements, the distance between the wire counting wheel and the conductive wheel can be adjusted to adjust the length of the cooling section.

[0020] A tungsten-based diamond wire baseline straightening system for cutting silicon wafers of photovoltaic panels includes an active wire pay-off component, a wire pressing tension component, an energized heating unit, a wire winding and paying-off component, a wind shield, and a control cabinet. Its characteristics are as follows: The active wire pay-off component includes a spool and a motor, and the motor drives the spool to rotate.

Each heating section consists of two conductive wheels and a section of baseline. The conductive wheels are connected to the power supply through wires. The wire winding and paying-off component includes a spool and a motor, and the motor drives the spool to rotate. A wire counting wheel is arranged before the guiding wheel to measure the length of the straightened baseline and the wire running speed. The wind shield surrounds the heating section, and gaps for accommodating the baseline are provided on both sides. The wind shield is rectangular in shape with no cover on all four sides and is made of a transparent material. The control cabinet is connected to the wire counting wheel and the motor control module through data lines.

[0021] The motor is a servo motor.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] The present invention adopts a method of setting heating sections on the baseline to be straightened, applying a certain voltage at both ends of the heating section to make the heating section in a short-circuit state with a large current, quickly heating to the tempering state, achieving the effect of straightening the baseline, and adjusting the straightening effect by adjusting basic parameters such as the straightening voltage, straightening speed, and straightening tension.
