Semiconductor equipment: solar photovoltaic market is booming


Driven by the solar cell industry, China's semiconductor equipment industry has achieved good results. Industry experts said that while paying attention to the solar cell market, domestic equipment manufacturers should also turn their attention to market applications such as LED, LCD, and power electronic devices, and maintain price advantage to win a bigger market in a new round of competition. space.

Solar cell equipment is still a bright spot

Due to the surge in demand for solar cells in the international market, and the entry threshold for solar cell production equipment is not very high, many domestic equipment manufacturers are targeting this market, and have launched photovoltaic production equipment, making it the sales of semiconductor equipment in China in recent years. main component.

Jin Cunzhong, secretary general of China Electronics Special Equipment Association, said in an interview with China Electronics News that at present, the biggest bright spot of domestic semiconductor equipment is solar battery equipment. Think about it. Four or five years ago, the sales of the entire semiconductor equipment industry in China was only 200 million to 300 million yuan, and by the end of this year only the sales of solar equipment will reach 800 million yuan. It is not difficult to understand why the equipment manufacturers and research institutes such as 48, 45, Qixing Huachuang and Xi'an University of Technology affiliated factories of Zhongdian Technology Group have been reported in the field of solar cell equipment.

According to industry experts, after years of efforts, China's photovoltaic equipment companies have basically equipped with solar cell manufacturing equipment, some products such as diffusion furnaces, plasma etching machines, etc., start a small number of exports, can provide 10 kinds of solar cell large production line equipment 8 kinds, 6 of which (diffusion furnace, plasma etching machine, cleaning/texturing machine, quartz tube cleaning machine, low temperature drying furnace) have occupied the leading position in domestic production lines, 2 kinds (tube type PECVD, rapid sintering furnace) ) Coexisting with imported equipment but the share is gradually increasing. Three types (automatic screen printing machine, automatic tiller, flat PECVD) are completely dependent on imports. Laminators and solar simulators for component production are widely used in the industry. The single crystal furnace in the silicon wafer processing equipment has occupied the absolute dominance of the domestic market with excellent cost performance and exported to Asia in batches. The multi-line cutting machine has made breakthroughs, and the polycrystalline silicon ingot furnace is just around the corner.

Domestic solar photovoltaic equipment has established a good reputation among domestic users and has been widely recognized by the industry. More and more customers have benefited from the use of domestic equipment.

Wang Junchao, deputy director of 48 China Power Technology Group, said that China's solar photovoltaic industry has the ability to face international competition in just a few years. The weapon for rapid development lies in the fact that technology and international standards have unmatched low-cost advantages. The investment cost of enterprises is greatly reduced. He stressed that in order to maintain cost advantages, the future technological development of solar cell equipment must be carried out in the following aspects: improving the level of single machine automation, increasing the amount of batch loading, and improving the efficiency of single machine; automatic transfer of robots between devices, online detection, Improve the production efficiency of the whole line, reduce manual intervention, reduce the fragmentation rate; materialize more advanced technology into equipment, further improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells, reduce the cost per watt; suitable for large size, thin silicon wafer process, etc., to save Silicon materials reduce costs; with exhaust emission collection and treatment devices to reduce emissions and intermediate pollutant emissions, to meet more stringent environmental regulations.

To maintain a cost-effective advantage

In the interview process, many industry experts said that domestic semiconductor equipment manufacturers can not be compared with foreign manufacturers in terms of technology level. Therefore, high cost performance has become the only advantage of domestic semiconductor equipment and foreign products.
