In the cleanroom of ENGEL AUSTRIA in Schwertberg, Austria, the influence of tool temperature on cleanroom quality was intensively investigated. The results of this work provided the basis for the development of a completely new cleanroom concept. (Image: Engel) / The influence of mold temperature on cleanroom quality was investigated intensively in the cleanroom of ENGEL AUSTRIA in Schwertberg, Austria. The results of this work formed the basis for the development of a completely new cleanroom concept. (Picture: ENGEL)

Image 1. Traditionally, the supply of fresh air flows counter to the heat flow. At very high tool temperatures, the supply of fresh air no longer reaches the tool. (Image: Engel)

Figure 1. The clean airflow conventionally runs counter to the thermal flux. At very high mold temperatures, the clean airflow does not even reach the mold. (Picture: ENGEL)

Figure 2. At a mold temperature of 90°C, a constant flow no longer prevails. The turbulence occurs mainly immediately after opening the mold. After four seconds, the flow stabilizes again. (Image: ENGEL)

Figure 3. At a mold temperature of 140°C, a throughflow could only be achieved by increasing the flow velocity, which, however, is not permitted in practice due to the set velocity of 0.45 m/s. (Image: ENGEL)

Figure 4. To also keep the particle load low at high tool temperatures, it is advisable to reverse the flow of the clean air. ENGEL AUSTRIA and Max Petek Cleanroom Technology have implemented an initial industrial solution for this. The view into the tool area shows the air grille through which the cleanroom air is blown upwards. (Image: ENGEL)

Figure 5: The cleanroom module with reversed airflow developed by Max Petek Cleanroom Technology fits space-savingly into the frame of the injection molding machine. (Picture: ENGEL)

Figure 6. The simulation confirms the good result of the new cleanroom solution. The image shows the temperature distribution in the cleanroom. The tool has a temperature of 180°C, and the cleanroom air flows from bottom to top. It is very clear how the hot air quickly moves upward away from the tool. The new cleanroom concept leverages this very effect. (Image: ENGEL)
