The advanced microCELL™ MCS laser cutting system has been developed to meet the photovoltaic (PV) market’s demands for boosting module power output and service life by minimizing power losses and providing for an exceptionally high mechanical strength of cut cells. It enables the highest throughputs for cutting cell sizes up to M12/G12 into half cells or shingled cells.
The microCELL™ MCS system takes advantage of 3DMicromac’s patented thermal laser separation (TLS) process for cell separation. The ablation free technique guarantees an excellent edge quality.
The microCELL™ MCS system offers half and shingled cell cutting for improved module performance. The TLS Technology™ has gained importance in contrast to conventional separation techniques due to smooth and defect free cutting edges. This leads to a significantly higher module power gain and less module power degradation.

The coaxworks wireM laser welding head opens up new possibilities for surface repair and geometry modification of tools in metalworking. Areas of application are, for example, tools for sheet metal and solid forming, wear parts of construction machines or other functional components subject to abrasive stress. With the installation in a CNC machine or a robot laser system, the fully mechanical processing of simple surfaces up to complex three-dimensional tool surfaces is possible.
We would be happy to advise you on how the full potential of surface repair can also be used for your workpieces.

Layer-by-layer 3D metal printing using lasers as the energy source and metallic wires as the filler material is a process variant of additive manufacturing and 3D printing. With the coaxworks wireM laser welding head, welding wires can be used for manufacturing strategies of massive volumes and thin-walled structures. The application can be suitable for certain components due to fast availability and effective material use already from quantity 1.
Wire-based 3D metal printing offers the following potentials compared to previous manufacturing methods:
> Near-net-shape parts with the saving of subtractive work when milling from the solid
> Near-demand production of small series and prototypes
> Energy-saving component production compared to casting or forming
Whether the application is also suitable for your tasks or whether the potentials can also be used for your products - we would be happy to discuss both with you.

The microDICE™ laser micromachining system leverages TLSDicing™ (thermal laser separation) – a unique technology that uses thermally induced mechanical forces to separate brittle semiconductor materials, such as silicon (Si), silicon carbide (SiC), germanium (Ge) and gallium arsenide (GaAs), into dies with outstanding edge quality while increasing manufacturing yield and throughput. Compared to traditional separation technologies, such as saw dicing and laser ablation, TLS Dicing™ enables a clean process, microcrack free edges, and higher resulting bending strength.
Capable of dicing speeds up to 300mm per second, the microDICE™ system provides up to a 10X increase in process throughput compared to traditional dicing systems. Its high throughput, outstanding edge quality and 300mm wafer capable platform enables a true high volume production process, especially for SiC based devices.
