Solar Panel Dismantling and Recycling System Process
As photovoltaic power generation continues to expand, the volume of retired solar panels is rapidly increasing. How can these resources be utilized reliably and cost-effectively? SUNY GROUP's semi-automated solar panel recycling machine offers a more cost-effective solution for PV recycling enterprises and investors, featuring reasonable production capacity, flexible configuration, and stable efficiency.
Production Line Configuration and Process Flow
The entire recycling line is designed with a focus on efficiency, safety, and material separation purity. Step 1: Solar panels undergo front-end processing via a semi-automatic frame removal and junction box disassembly machine. This equipment rapidly detaches aluminum frames and junction boxes, significantly reducing manual labor while providing clean, standardized raw material forms for subsequent material grading. The glass and silicon wafer structures of dismantled modules remain intact, avoiding fragmentation during primary processing and enhancing recycling quality from the outset.
In the second stage, pre-treated modules enter the glass separation machine. This equipment employs heated stripping technology to thermally decompose the EVA adhesive film, enabling glass to peel off in near-intact sheets. Compared to traditional mechanical hammering methods, this significantly reduces breakage rates, yielding higher-purity glass suitable for direct reuse or further processing. The stable, continuous glass separation process is ideal for sustained operation on medium-scale production lines, markedly reducing material loss.
The third section comprises the EVA solar cell crushing and sorting line. This stage breaks down remaining cell structures, employing a combined process of magnetic separation, screening, and air classification to efficiently separate silicon powder, metals (such as silver and copper), and residual plastic materials. Recyclable materials are clearly diverted: silicon powder is sent to regeneration and purification plants for further utilization, metals offer higher recycling value, while plastics can be remelted or recycled as industrial raw materials. The entire production line adheres to physical separation principles, preventing secondary pollution while maintaining excellent energy efficiency.
Target Users and Investment Value
For recyclers and investors new to the PV recycling sector, this semi-automated line offers stable separation efficiency without the high costs of large-scale fully automated systems, making it an ideal entry-level model. The equipment features a compact footprint, clear configuration, short commissioning cycle, and straightforward maintenance and operation, enabling new teams to master it quickly. It also offers scalability for future line expansion, providing excellent room for sustainable growth.
If you're seeking a PV module recycling solution with moderate capacity, controllable costs, and consistent recovery performance and material purity, this production line may be the perfect fit. Feel free to contact us anytime for parameter quotations and on-site solutions.
