Project Overview

 

IRICO Group New Energy is a major Chinese manufacturer specializing in solar photovoltaic glass. The Group operates multiple photovoltaic glass production bases, including Hefei, Yan’an, Shangrao and Xianyang, with a focus on high-transmission, large-size and ultra-thin PV glass. Its photovoltaic glass business has been described by the company as a core business and has maintained a leading position in the Chinese market.

Techwin has supplied more than 30 high-speed glass washing machines to IRICO’s different production locations.

The machines are used in several critical stages of PV glass processing, including after double edging, after laser drilling, before printing and after tempering.

The Challenge

 

Solar glass production requires:

  • High production speed
  • Consistent cleaning performance
  • Reliable drying
  • Stable operation for continuous production
  • Different washing configurations for different processes

For a large-scale PV glass manufacturer, even a small bottleneck in washing can affect the efficiency of the entire production line.

IRICO therefore requires washing equipment capable of keeping pace with high-volume continuous production.

Techwin’s Solution

 

High-Speed Washing for Multiple Processes

Techwin has supplied different washing-machine configurations according to the production stage.

After Double Edging

The washing machines remove glass particles and processing residue after edging, preparing the glass for subsequent processes.

After Laser Drilling

The machines clean residual particles generated during laser drilling before the glass enters the next production stage.

Before Printing

High-quality surface cleaning is essential before printing. Techwin washing machines provide consistent cleaning and drying to prepare the glass surface.

After Tempering

For post-tempering applications, Techwin provides high-speed washing machines capable of keeping up with demanding production lines.

High-Speed Performance

 

Up to 30 m/min

The washing machines supplied to IRICO are designed for high-throughput solar glass production.

Before Tempering

Up to 25 m/min

After Tempering

Up to 30 m/min

This allows the washing process to keep pace with high-speed upstream and downstream equipment without becoming a production bottleneck.

Proven at Scale

The most important part of this project is not a single machine.

It is the scale of the cooperation.

Supporting High-Volume Solar Glass Production

 

IRICO continues to invest in large-scale photovoltaic glass production, including thin, high-transmission and large-size PV glass. Its recent production expansion and technology upgrades have further increased the scale and sophistication of its deep-processing operations.

Techwin’s high-speed washing machines are designed to support this type of continuous, high-volume production environment, where reliability, cleaning quality and processing speed are equally important.
