Fewer interfaces, greater process reliability
Smooth interaction of all the components used is crucial for the cost-effective operation of cleanroom applications. Combining plates, components and hot runner components from an aligned range reduces the coordination effort required throughout the value chain. At the same time, users benefit from clearly defined interfaces and a consistent standard of quality. Meusburger’s comprehensive solution enables efficient procurement and supports the rapid realisation of projects.
Low-wear components for clean processes
A key factor in cleanrooms is the prevention of particle abrasion. Meusburger’s range of products therefore includes various components that are designed to meet the requirements of clean production environments. DLC coated components reduce wear – and consequently particle formation – due to their low coefficient of friction. In addition, stainless steel components are available which offer excellent corrosion resistance. Stainless steel, low-leakage temperature regulation components also minimise the risk of leaks and ensure reliable and clean operation.
Corrosion resistant materials as a stable foundation
The selection of the right material plays an important role in cleanrooms. Corrosion resistant materials help to maintain surface quality in the long term and ensure process stability. Meusburger offers a range of plates and bars made from corrosion resistant tool steels, available directly from stock. The materials 1.2083 (ESU/H), 1.2085 and 1.2316 are characterised by their high chromium content and the resulting corrosion resistance. Depending on the application, a range of properties is available in terms of hardness, machinability and surface quality, making the materials suitable for various cleanroom requirements.
Precision hot runner components for challenging applications
Injection moulding technology also has a decisive influence on process reliability in the cleanroom. Meusburger’s valve gate systems enable the gating points to be opened and closed with precision and are suitable for demanding applications with high quality requirements. The defined gate enables high-quality plastic parts to be manufactured consistently. The systems also support a high number of cavities and short injection cycles. Pneumatically or servo-electrically actuated valve gate systems also enable oil-free operation, thereby reducing the risk of contamination – an important prerequisite for controlled and stable cleanroom processes.
Through the coordinated interaction of mould components, plates and hot runner components, Meusburger provides a reliable basis for cleanroom applications. For more information on complete cleanroom solutions can be found at www.meusburger.com/cleanroom.
