EPL Inspection Equipment is the first product in China independently developed by Vision Potential, based on traditional PL technology, with EL-level inspection and imaging capabilities. Unlike traditional PL and EL inspection equipment that suffer from single-function limitations, EPL can compatibly and accurately identify various defects such as minority carrier and series resistance related defects in cells, breaking the limitations of single-device inspection through technological integration.
Integrating PL (Photoluminescence) and EL (Electroluminescence) dual inspection technologies, it constructs an integrated inspection system: deeply exploring intrinsic defects in the non-energized state while accurately diagnosing electrical performance issues. It runs through the entire lifecycle of photovoltaic products from R&D to mass production.
