Apparatus and method for manufacturing thin film type solar cell

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for manufacturing a thin film type solar cell, which enables the enhancement of productivity, the apparatus for manufacturing a thin film type solar cell including: a first electrode forming unit forming a first electrode on a substrate, and forming a first separation part for separating the first electrode; an optic-electro conversion layer forming unit forming an optic-electro conversion layer over the substrate which includes the first electrode and the first separation part; a contact line forming unit removing a certain region of the optic-electro conversion layer formed on the first electrode to form a contact line; a printing unit printing a second electrode, which is connected to the first electrode through the contact line and separated at certain intervals with a second separation part therebetween, on the optic-electro conversion layer; and an etching process unit removing the optic-electro conversion layer in the second separation part to expose the first electrode in the second separation part, through a wet etching process.
