Cleanroom Injection Molding
VistaTek has expanded its Class 8 Cleanroom injection molding capabilities, allowing us to continue diversifying our offerings. Injection molding in a cleanroom environment involves creating plastic parts within a controlled space optimized to minimize contamination. Here are the key points:
In a Class 8 Environment:
- Molding equipment is surrounded by portable tenting.
- Positive air flow is maintained to meet ISO 14644-1 standards for particulate levels.
Particulate limits include:
- 3,520,000 particulates ≥ 0.5 micrometers per cubic meter of air.
- 832,000 particulates ≥ 1 micrometer per cubic meter of air.
- 29,300 particulates ≥ 5 micrometers per cubic meter of air.
Cleanroom Molding Requirements:
- Positive air flow: Class 8 cleanrooms use positive air flow to maintain specific particulate levels.
- Masking requirements: Includes gowns, gloves, and hair/beard covers.
