This customer is building Canada's largest solar panel manufacturing plant in southern Ontario. Each line will be capable of handling 120 MW of annual production, making it North America's largest manufacturing site for crystalline silicon-type panels, and one of the largest on the continent making any type of panel.

"This is a landmark contract, one of our largest in North America to date, and our first solar-related installation in the small but rapidly growing Canadian solar manufacturing sector," said Robert Giaier, vice-president, alternative energy, Kuka Systems Corp North America. "We welcome the opportunity to contribute our solar technology and extensive experience as assembly line integrators to our customer's success."  

The post-lamination lines were built first at Kuka Systems North America in Michigan, tested in-house, then disassembled and trucked to the customer's facility where they are being reassembled.
