Abstract: Embodiments of the invention may provide a system for the production of photovoltaic modules that comprises at least a first work line having a plurality of positioning stations in which a series of first processing operations are performed and a second work line consisting of at least a positioning station in which at least a second processing operation is performed. The process sequence may include, for example, printing a layer material used to form one or more electric contacts on a base layer, and then positioning photovoltaic cells and various layers of insulating material in a desired orientation over the base layer to form a photovoltaic module.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a transport unit for transporting a print support, or substrate, through a plant that deposits print tracks on a surface of the print support. The plant has at least one print station having at least one print head to deposit the print track onto the print support according to a predetermined pattern. The transport unit comprises a transport element having a transport surface facing, during use, toward the print head and on which the print support is disposed during processing. The transport surface comprises a portion covered with an adhesive surface layer upon which the print support is positioned.
