What is a solar module able to withstand? Test it on the single-arm 4-point bending bandit!
What the testing machine can do, you can do, too - with the single-arm 4-point bending bandit. You can bend PV modules (in test format) with your test load and find out for yourself at what load the solar cells break. Experience what different modules can withstand and what they have to withstand. And be surprised by what lightweight modules have to offer and how digitization allows you to get insights into the module. The mechanical evaluation of material, component and system strengths with bending tests is common practice in destructive materials testing, not only for researchers at the Fraunhofer CSP. Bring along your research spirit and make our PV modules and solar cells crack.
