Meyer Burger Technology AG is a Swiss-German technology company known for high-precision machinery used in the solar and semiconductor industries. For decades, the group designed and built complete production systems — from wafer slicing and solar-cell coating to module assembly and automation.
In early 2025, Meyer Burger’s German subsidiaries filed for insolvency proceedings, mainly affecting the company’s machine-building and production-equipment divisions. The Swiss parent company continues global operations and manufacturing of solar cells and modules.
MachineToolSpareParts.site assists operators of discontinued or German-made Meyer Burger equipment by providing access to licensed technical drawings and precision manufacturing partners. Our mission is to keep these production systems serviceable despite changing corporate structures.
The Meyer Burger Background
Historically, Meyer Burger supplied complete factory solutions to other solar-cell manufacturers worldwide. The company developed and built:
• Wire-saw and wafering machines for silicon slicing
• PECVD, PVD, and laser systems for high-efficiency solar-cell processing
• Module-assembly and automation systems
• Inline inspection and metrology machines
Much of this equipment was designed and produced in Germany — particularly in Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Freiberg. After years of industry pressure and reduced demand for European solar-manufacturing equipment, the German operations entered insolvency proceedings in 2025.
While the company continues under partial restructuring, spare-part availability for older machine generations has become uncertain.
Challenges for Machine Owners
Operators of Meyer Burger machinery built in Germany often face:
• Reduced OEM support for legacy machine lines
• Missing or restricted documentation for process equipment
• Limited availability of proprietary automation components
• Extended lead times for critical mechanical or electronic spares
These challenges can affect uptime, maintenance planning, and product quality.
Our Solution
MachineToolSpareParts.site provides independent support for users of Meyer Burger machines. We source and license original drawings where available and reproduce discontinued components through verified engineering partners.
Through our international manufacturing network, we can:
• Reproduce discontinued Meyer Burger spare parts
• Provide licensed technical documentation where available
• Manufacture compatible mechanical and automation components through certified suppliers
This helps factories keep older solar-production lines running reliably and efficiently.

Disclaimer
MachineToolSpareParts.site is an independent platform and is not affiliated with Meyer Burger Technology AG or its subsidiaries. Only certain German divisions involved in equipment manufacturing are under insolvency proceedings. The Swiss parent company continues global operations. We may or may not currently hold or be able to acquire the original technical drawings. Each request is reviewed individually, and availability depends on licensing rights and data access for each specific machine or component.
