How it works

Perceive. Predict. Control. Learn.

Panevex turns an open-loop module line into a closed-loop system. Here is exactly how a wafer becomes a graded, defect-screened module under one continuously-learning policy.

The loop

Four stages, one continuous cycle

01

Perceive

Every cell and string is imaged in EL, PL, and RGB. Geometry, defects, and bond quality become live data.

02

Predict

Physics-aware models score crack-risk, cure state, and power impact before the module moves on.

03

Control

Set-points on the stringer, laminator, and handling are corrected in real time on the edge.

04

Learn

Outcomes feed the module twin, which improves the policy every agent runs tomorrow.

Step 1 — Perceive every cell

Elumnex ingests electroluminescence, photoluminescence, and RGB vision at line speed. It segments microcracks, broken fingers, solder defects, and cell shift down to sub-cell resolution — building a complete perception model of the module as it's built.

  • Sub-cell defect segmentation
  • EL + PL + RGB sensor fusion
  • Live geometry and alignment tracking

Step 2 — Predict the consequence

Detection isn't enough. Panevex predicts what each defect will cost — crack-risk of propagation, power impact in watts, and 25-year degradation exposure — so the line can act on the defects that actually matter.

  • Crack-propagation risk scoring
  • Power impact quantified in watts
  • Field-degradation exposure modeling

Step 3 — Control the machine

Lamira and Ribbix don't just flag problems — they fix the process. Cure temperature, vacuum, pressure, dwell, bond thermal profile, and alignment are all corrected in closed loop, per material lot and stack-up.

  • Closed-loop cure control
  • Real-time bond correction
  • Per-lot, per-recipe adaptation

Step 4 — Learn and compound

Every module's outcome is written back to Twinvex, the module digital twin. Tomorrow's policy is better than today's — and it transfers across lines and fabs. This is the flywheel that competitors can't copy without the data.

  • Outcomes train the next policy
  • Policy transfers across lines

Under the hood

Edge for control, cloud for cognition

Edge inference

Jetson-class GPUs at the machine keep the control loop under 10 ms — no cloud round-trip.

Cloud training

DGX/HGX clusters train and re-train perception and policy models on fleet-wide data.

Digital twin

OVX/RTX simulation validates every recipe and control policy before it touches a real module.

Do we have to replace our existing stringers and laminators?
No. Panevex adds perception and closed-loop control to the machines you already run. We integrate through your existing PLCs, SCADA, and MES.
How long before the loop is closed?
Most lines start in observe-only shadow mode within weeks, then enable closed-loop control station by station once baselines and guardrails are agreed.
What happens if the AI is unsure?
Every actuator has human-set guardrails. When confidence is low, Panevex holds within safe bounds and escalates with the evidence.

Watch the loop close on your line

We'll run a shadow-mode pilot and show you the escapes and recovered watts before you commit to closed-loop control.
