Method for welding cell strings and series welding machine

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for welding cell strings and a series welding machine. The method includes: forming an arrangement of a plurality of solar cells; inspecting the arrangement of the plurality of solar cells; providing a plurality of initial welding strips including first initial welding strips and second initial welding strips, the first initial welding strips interleave with the second initial welding strips in a first direction; cutting each of the first initial welding strips at first cutting positions, and cutting each of the second initial welding strips at second cutting positions, to obtain a plurality of welding strips; moving each welding strip in a second direction to form a set of welding strips; transferring the set of welding strips onto the arrangement of the plurality of solar cells; and welding the plurality of welding strips to corresponding solar cells to form a cell string.
