About HARREXCO AG
HARREXCO AG is an international engineering, systems and solutions partner for manufacturing, automation, instrumentation and metrology. According to its own statements, the company develops and manufactures automation systems, robotics applications and software solutions 100 % in-house. The portfolio includes test systems for solar and photovoltaic modules (current leakage, vibration, mechanical load, insulation and continuity tests), electroluminescence testing, steady-state solar simulators as well as automated loading, butyl application, junction box and backrail assembly systems. For the glass industry, HARREXCO offers edge deletion systems, decoating discs and thiokol sleeves. The Technology Centre Germany in Langenzenn provides a lab service for feasibility studies with lasers, robots, microscopes and test equipment, complemented by process and certification consulting in accordance with IEC and UL. Customers include AUDI, Bosch, Dräger, Oerlikon and Grenzebach.
