PV Ribbon-What is Photovoltaic Ribbon
Photovoltaic Strip | Solar Strip | Solar tab wire | solar bus
Photovoltaic strip, also known as PV Strip or Solar Strip, is a hot-dipped tinned copper flat conductor that collects current from photovoltaic cells. It connects individual solar cells and carries the generated current to the distribution system.


LEADING PV STRIP SUPPLIER SINCE 2012
Raytron was founded in 2012 and started its business with the development of copper rolled flat ribbon wire.
After 12 years of persistent efforts, Raytron has become the most professional manufacturer of high precision copper and copper-clad aluminum flat strip wire and strip in China, and one of the very few manufacturers in China that can produce flat wire and strip with width to thickness ratio higher than 100 times. Copper strip and flat strip wire with ultra-low yield strength below 110Mpa. High dimensional accuracy and flatness are also guaranteed.
Raytron is the largest producer of rolled copper strip and flat strip wire for Photovoltaic Strip and Solar Busbars in China, with 10 high precision 4-link rolling mills and an annual production capacity of 13,000 tons.

6 key factors for Choosing PV Ribbon
PV Ribbon is the basic component of a photovoltaic system; Therefore, its quality is very important for the life, function and efficiency of solar panels.


Material
PV şeridin yaygın olarak kullanılan temel malzemesi, en az %100 IACS iletkenliği sunan CDA102 bakırdır. Farklı Alüminyum alaşımlarının yanı sıra Bakır Kaplı Alüminyum da mevcuttur.

tin plating
Tin layer composition and coating thickness are important parameters that affect the solder strength and performance of PV panels.

yield strength
Yield strength is the minimum amount of stress required to permanently deform the PV Ribbon. This is an important parameter because if the yield strength of the PV Strip is too high, it can put too much stress on the panel itself and cause it to break.

Camber
The PV strip should be straight with no camber to prevent missed ties.

Elongation
High Elongation = High Ductility = High Module reliability

Winding
Minimize Cambery, Prevent Wrinkling, Maintain Yield Strength
