Abstract[English]
Provided herein are various enhancements for solar panels and associated solar arrays. In one example, a method of manufacturing includes forming, by an additive manufacturing process, a stackup of half-panels comprising connected pairs of the half-panels each having an integrated construction comprising a webbing structure connected to a skin layer substantially covering a face. The method also includes separating the stackup into detached pairs of the half-panels, assembling a selected detached pair of the half-panels into a full panel, and attaching photovoltaic cells to a selected face of the full panel.[French]
L'invention concerne diverses améliorations pour des panneaux solaires et des réseaux solaires associés. Dans un exemple, un procédé de fabrication comprend la formation, par un procédé de fabrication additive, d'un empilement de demi-panneaux comprenant des paires connectées de demi-panneaux ayant chacun une construction intégrée comprenant une structure de sangles reliée à une couche de peau recouvrant sensiblement une face. Le procédé comprend également la séparation de l'empilement en paires détachées de demi-panneaux, l'assemblage d'une paire détachée sélectionnée de demi-panneaux en un panneau complet, et la fixation de cellules photovoltaïques sur une face sélectionnée du panneau complet.
