Manz AG (formerly Manz Automation) is a German multinational engineering company active in the fields of automation, laser processesing, metrology, wet chemistry and roll-to-roll processing. Manz AG bundles its activities into two reporting segments: Mobility & Battery Solutions and Industry Solutions. The focus in the Mobility & Battery Solutions segment is on intelligent production solutions for highly efficient lithium-ion batteries. The Industry Solutions reporting segment is responsible for assembly and production solutions for electronic components and devices, power and consumer electronics, and components for the electric powertrain.[2]
Headquartered in Reutlingen, Baden-Württemberg, the company has additional production centres in Tübingen as well as international manufacturing sites in Hungary, Italy, Slovakia, China and Taiwan.[3] There are additional sales and service branches in the United States, South Korea and India.[4]
Manz had developed a significant presence in the solar photovoltaic industry. Its activities in this sector focused on the development and supply of integrated systems for the production of CIGS thin-film solar modules.[5] In 2010 the company established a partnership with Würth Solar (part of the Würth industrial group) for the exclusive licensing of its CIGS solar cell production technology.[6] After the acquisition of the CIGS modules innovation line of Würth Solar in January 2012, technology licenses were also transferred to the company on an unrestricted basis.[7] In September 2012, Manz presented a CIGS solar module, which was produced on a mass production line and has a 14.6 percent efficiency on total module area and 15.9 percent on aperture area (one in the industry unequaled efficiency).[5] In April 2015, Manz surpassed these numbers again and presented an impressive new efficiency world record for CIGS thin-film solar modules on mass production line with a module efficiency of 16 percent.[8]
The major business areas of Manz are the supply of systems for the production of flat panel displays and touch panels, a market it first entered in 1994,[9] Printed Circuit Boards,[10] electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablet computers and laptops [11] as well as the supply of systems for the production of lithium-ion batteries on an industrial scale for e.g. e-mobility.[12]
