Reis=20
Robotics recently won an order for planning and realization =

fully automated module production with a nominal capacity of =
400 MW=20
for REC in Singapore. On the basis of many years of =
experience in=20
the automotive and PV industry, all requirements of the =
customer=20
were implemented quickly and on schedule. With Reis' =
considerable=20
experience in factory planning and material logistics, the =
existing=20
production area was optimized and the best possible =
cost-benefit=20
ratio achieved.
Reis=20
Robotics was not only able to give the customer REC the =
ideal advice=20
in automation and process matters, but could also offer and=20
implement cost-optimized material flow solutions. The first =
partial=20
line for fully automated module production was not only =
handed over=20
to REC on time, but the time of production start was even =
earlier=20
than scheduled.
The=20
modular design newly introduced at Reis Robotics, based on =
the=20
mechatronic production principle, resulted in a considerably =
shorter=20
time for the project planning and production phases than in =
the=20
past. The strict adherence to the time schedule in the =
assembly and=20
commissioning phase was competently ensured by the strong =
service=20
and project management team on site.
Due to=20
the new training concept especially designed for PV systems =
and the=20
fully integrated involvement of the system operator, the =
system=20
start and ramp-up could be implemented faster and more =

This was also brought forward and supported by the new =
subsidiary of=20
Reis Robotics in Singapore, assuring close local service and =

sales care. The high quality of the system combined with =

the system supplier, Reis Robotics not only delivered the =

system and automation technology, but also the necessary =

as well as connection of the junction box. Here particularly =
