Gap measurement in photovoltaic modules

The module is hermetically sealed using a vacuum during a new method for the production of photovoltaic modules. The correct distance between glass front and metal rear side is important for this vacuum. Therefore, the distance of the glass pane to the rear side is automatically measured from one side in the production using confocal sensors.
