How to cut solar cells

- Some time ago I needed a method of cutting solar cells in order to make from a larger solar cell (6x6inch, 0.55Volt, 8Amp) a number of smaller solar cells to be used for a small solar panel for batteries charging and other applications. Here is how I have succeeded to do that.

I've seen other videos so far on how to cut a cell but this is the simplest, cheapest and thus best so far. Thanks a lot for this. Can't wait to try this
a regular rolling type glass cutter? Great idea. I'll have to try this. Thanks for posting the video.
You have very good hands. Thank you for the video.
Exactly what I have been looking for. Nice Job.
Nice & very clean cutting. Why don't you upload more videos to your channel.
I'll happy to see you in action again. Thanks for the video!
Nice ! easy and effective.! I'll by one of those glass cutting tools and try it myself..
It is an excellent method! Could you please specify the cutter used? Thanks a lot!
That's a beautiful work. Even amazing!!, Thanks!
:)
Muy buen método, cortarlo de esta manera. Pero hay ser un experto cortando vidrio, ya que el grosor del vidrio de lamina solar es 0,2 mm. Es extremadamente quebradiza y frágil. Me gusta esa idea, voy a intentarlo hacer.
thank you i'll try this way, regards
thanks for video!!!
Are you using the same cutter that cuts glass? or your using the different type...
thank you!
How can I contact you (the contact form on your site doesn't work)? The cells you cut are polycrystalline, right? Does it also work with monocrystalline cells?
so now its all connected, short circuited. thats why no meter after cutting, or is there more videos?
Sir how i making soler blu clouer glass .what is this that glass.thanks
But how do you connect to the cells then electrically?
I wish there was a .5v boost circuit that could use the amps of the 6x6" cell and convert to 6v.
can i use this method for maxeon c60?
HI , Thanks for the reply .
After many attempts and in different pressures (breaking some during the cut and other after snapping it ).
I think the problem is the orientation of the crystal inside the cell . they run in 45deg compared to the lines .
I can easily breat them (even without the glass cutter) at 45 deg angles with very straight lines but not the way you do (with the conductors orientation) . I think I will go back and try to improve my dremell cutter.
Thanks
I think he cut policristalline cell, you are trying to cub a monocristalline cell, that have 45degree crystal orientation compared with bus lines, and cannot be cut in that way
can this blade cut amorphous solar cells?
How thick are your solar cells?
Frumos tricou :)
What type of cutter You used? I tried with a roller type (silberschnitt branded) and I've crushed everything!
A cutter with a diamond tip
can you cut a cell into any shape???
thanks
A small battery charger can be made using those smaller cells.
I took great plans from Avasva . It help me a lot with my own solars.
Grozav, voi incerca si eu asta! Vreau sa imi fac un panou mic si nu gasesc celule la dimensiunea dorita. Ai incercat si pe monocristaline? Ma gandesc ca ar trebui sa fie identic.
can show as is the tip of the cutter
good!
Es bueno ,no se pierde material pero el proceso es muy lento,estresante y riesgoso para la celda
Great to see that inplix has new instructions to save my money and energy to build it.
How does this affect the output of the cell? Does each piece still produce .5 V?
Yes, only the current (and power) will be smaller, proportional with the surface of the cell.
Great for trickle chargers.
does it work to play dc motor
can cut triangle shape
where can we get solar cells
Looks Like This Process Works Well For Polycrystalline Cells Not For The Monocrystalline Cells I Tried Them On. For Monocrystalline You Have To Cut Along The “Grain” Of The Lattice But, At Least For Me, That Did Not Line Up With The Solder Lines. I’m Going To Try The Dremel Method.
How did the dremel work out?
@@vNewH0USE I Got It To Work. I Used The Diamond Rotor They Recommend On Other Videos. It Works Great. Very Important To Build A Good Jig So You Can Cut Strait. I Did Get Jagged Edges On Most Cuts But The Cells Worked As Normal
หาซื้แผ่นโซล่าเซลล์ได้ที่ใหนครับ
is glass cutting ????
The project like this step by step is described on the Avasva website and many more plans you can find on that website.
Mississipi maybe
Where do you buy solar sheets to cut ?
Mostly from eBay
Vali Tudurache what are the technical term for these ?
Solar cells.
Which brand is your cutter any link?
It's a no-name cutter... no link... sorry...
I Just bought one but it doesnt work. Just breaking them
When I bought the cutter, I tested a bunch of them on a piece of regular glass and I chose one that scratches the glass without pushing... maybe that helps...
What did you use for cut Cells?
I've made a small solar panel for a phone charger
Vali Tudurache i Just tried To cut them, their volt stays same that is awesome i wasnt know that thank you
Yes, but their amperage decreases proportionately to the size.
what is exactly the tool you use?
Did you ever find out what that tool was? I want to buy one :)
Daniel Wilson it is a normal glass cutter
OK thanks. I will try with diamond tip type. Probably roller type is not appropriate.
Sir can i know the name of the cutter
It's a no name, china made... cheapest I could find, but having a diamond tip.
salut, diamantul e cu rola sau cu varf fix ,de ce le tai asa de mici
cu varf fix, le-am taiat asa mici pentru ca am vrut sa fac un panou cat mai portabil pentru incarcat un acumulator...
multumesc de informatii, spor
it doesnt work. you need to apply an exact amount of pressure with the glass cutter to the cell or it will shatter
i have tried this but failed
Man - I tried it 10 times and broke all the cells! I don't know how you did it . impossible!
May be my diamond cutter isn't diamond (although it looks exactly the same as yours)
Did you use a glass bottom.. that can be the issue
es un corta vidrio
We should meet, are you from Ohio?
I've found great handbook on woodprix website. Good solutions for everyone I think
Are you from Ohio ?
C'est quoi ton trip de couper une cellule solaire on est en 2019 c'est pad une découverte exceptionnelle .lollllllllllllll
i tried 3times
the result is quite disaster
Yes me too did not work and I have a very expensive cutter!
Don't touch the cage without gloves, Neanderthal!
Professional laser scribing services, in clean rooms, with OHSA compliance would be better
I'm sure that you will find good way to make it on Inplix Website.
You should go to Inplix if you'd like to make it by yourselfs guys.
