Polar Power has accomplished
transfer of technology in the international market arena. Providing production equipment,
technical "know-how", and facility commissioning.

Technology
Emphasis:
- Photovoltaic Module Manufacture
- Automated Testing Equipment
- Training and Technology Transfer
Polar Products, working in cooperation with an established Chinese electronic products
manufacturing company, has completed start-up and commissioning of a photovoltaic module
production facility. The plant, located in Nanjing, China, delivered its first production
run in 1988.
The transfer included all equipment necessary for production down to hand tools and
soldering irons. Polar Products manufactured the major items of cell test equipment and
module laminating and testing systems. Polar Products also provided installation
supervision and on-site training of management and production employees to complete the
transfer of technical "know-how".

One of polar strongest assets is its ability to proceed
from prototype into production. These strength lies in our ability to identify vendors,
design the production process and produce the production and test equipment, and train the
factory workers. In addition to our own internal requirements some of Polars
domestic clients include: Hughes Aircraft, Martin Marietta, FMS and
Lockheed/CalComp.

to produce photovoltaic modules. Polar engineered the product, designed the production
process, produced the specialized production and test equipment, commissioned the
equipment on-site, and trained the workers. |
