What Equipment Is Available For Dismantling Solar PV Panels?

Solar photovoltaic panel module dismantling equipment is an indispensable equipment in the photovoltaic industry. The waste PV modules are dismantled, crushed and sorted through the physical automated dismantling line. Thus, it can achieve effective recycling and reuse of resourcefulness. It can not only reduce environmental pollution, but also place resource waste. Solar photovoltaic panel recycling machineis an important equipment to help the sustainable development of the photovoltaic industry.

What are the equipment for dismantling solar PV panels?

1. Dismantling equipment
It can dismantle the waste solar PV panels. It can realise the effective separation of the components on the PV panel. It mainly includes: junction box removal machine, frame removal machine and glass removal machine.

Junction box dismantling machine: the robot loading device first. Through the conveying device to the junction box removal machine positioning. Then remove the junction box from the top of the photovoltaic panel. The collection device will collect the junction box packing.

Aluminium frame removal machine: This equipment is professionally used for removing the aluminium alloy frame on the periphery of solar PV panels. Aluminium frames are usually finished aluminium, similar to broken aluminium. Therefore the recycling value is high. The framing machine fixes the PV panels by means of a robotic arm and clamps. The aluminium frames are then separated from the PV panels by means of plywood glass technology. The whole process is automated, resulting in efficient dismantling capacity and safe handling.

De-glassing machine: It can effectively strip the glass from the upper edge of the PV panel. Firstly, the PV panel is pre-heated to melt the EVA. Then the professional hot knife technology. The glass on the waste photovoltaic panels will be thermally removed. So that the glass and the panel for effective separation. So as to achieve the purpose of de-glassing.

2. Crushing and sorting equipment
After the dismantling of the solar photovoltaic panels of the battery backplane. And then after further crushing processing. Made into smaller particles. Thus facilitating the subsequent recycling process. The main equipment includes: shredder, crusher, pulveriser, grinder, vibrating screen, analyser, gravity sorting and so on.

Shredder: First, the large photovoltaic panels are shredded into small pieces. Through the double shaft rotating knife for tearing, shearing. Thus smaller pieces are easier to handle.

Crusher: The crusher will crush the shredded material into smaller particles. The particle size of the discharged material is uniform. Favourable for subsequent screening and recycling separation. The crusher adopts the form of high-speed hitting hammer + blade for crushing.

Grinder: adopts grinding disc type structure. By adjusting the clearance between grinding disc and disc. Perform high-speed rotary grinding. Make the particle size reach the recycling demand. Refine the crushed material. Make it grind into powder. Facilitate the subsequent full recovery and processing.

Vibrating screen: through the circular vibrating screen, separate the materials of different particles individually. Thus further separation and recovery.

Gravity sorting: Silicon powder and copper chips are separated from copper by gravity sorting. The rest of the materials enter the electrostatic sorting.

Electrostatic separation: the powder material, through the high-pressure static separation way. So as to separate out: metal and non-metal. That is: silicon powder and plastic.

From the above: waste solar photovoltaic panel dismantling and sorting equipment, there are more than one single equipment combination. The whole production line can realise intelligent automatic processing.
