RAYTRON’s flat wires and PV ribbons are used to interconnect cells, collect current at string level, and connect the module to the junction box, forming the electrical “backbone” of crystalline PV modules.
If you tell us your application, voltage/current, temperature, mechanical and cost targets, our engineers can quickly recommend the most suitable combination of copper, CCA, CCS, NCC, SCC or PV ribbon.
PV ribbon quality directly affects series resistance, solder joint strength and long‑term reliability, so a better ribbon translates into higher power output and longer module lifetime.
It helps a lot if you prepare circuit type, max current, duty cycle, ambient conditions, target lifetime, standards to meet and any special process constraints.
With high conductivity, precise dimensions and excellent solderability, RAYTRON PV ribbons minimize resistive losses and ensure strong, low‑resistance interconnections between cells.
Yes, we can provide side‑by‑side comparisons on conductivity, weight, strength, cost and typical use cases so you can make a clear, data‑driven choice.
Yes, our PV ribbons can be tailored for both monofacial and bifacial designs, including options that enhance light reflection for the rear side of bifacial modules.
For safety‑critical power, code‑restricted circuits or very high DC current in small cross‑sections, we usually recommend remaining with pure copper.
Absolutely, we supply narrow, precisely controlled PV ribbons optimized for half‑cut cells and MBB layouts where dimensional accuracy is crucial.
We look at electrical load, mechanical demands, environment and standards, then calculate whether a bimetal cross‑section can safely meet or exceed your requirements.
Our ribbons are designed to maintain adhesion, ductility and conductivity even after extended thermal cycling, supporting long‑term IEC‑type reliability requirements.
Many customers do exactly this: we help you identify non‑critical circuits or parts where switching to CCA/CCS delivers quick weight and cost savings.
Yes, no matter which inverter topology you choose, our ribbons focus on efficient current collection within the module itself, independent of system‑level design.
Higher temperatures favor materials like copper, NCC or nickel‑containing structures, while moderate temperatures leave more room for weight‑saving CCA or aluminum designs.
RAYTRON PV ribbons are supplied with excellent straightness and coil quality, so they run smoothly on modern high‑speed tabbing and stringing lines.
Yes, we can supply trial lots of different materials so you can compare performance, processing and cost in real‑world conditions.
Yes, our engineers can recommend thickness, width and mechanical properties that match your cell size, busbar layout and process settings.
Based on our experience, we can share typical cross‑section suggestions for telecom, EV, PV, battery and other sectors as a helpful starting point.
Excessive camber can cause missed bonds and misalignment during tabbing; our low‑camber ribbons are engineered to support high yields on automated lines.
The earlier you involve us, the more we can help you avoid over‑design and find a cost‑effective, production‑ready material solution.
