EAP Lachnit: Stainless Steel Weighing Pallet Truck Optimized Material Flow Even in Sensitive Areas

Weight to go

Mobile scales save a lot of time and simplify processes in material flow. Goods do not need to be transported, unloaded, and weighed on stationary scales. This also applies to sensitive areas such as food or pharmaceutical production or for use in explosion-proof areas and cleanrooms. EAP Lachnit of…

Pajunk GmbH develops and manufactures various medical technology products. At the headquarters in Geisingen, Baden-Württemberg, a new production and logistics center has been built, featuring a cleanroom of GMP Class D, covering an area of 1,015 m². (Source: bc-technology GmbH)

Various work steps are carried out in the new cleanroom: These include, among others, the production of products for biopsies and anesthesia as well as testing and packaging processes. (Source: bc-technology GmbH)

Some components are manufactured using the plastic injection molding process. However, production in the cleanroom has the disadvantage that the machines generate a lot of heat, which results in high energy consumption due to the installed air conditioning units. Therefore, bc-technology, in collaboration with the injection molding machine manufacturer, developed a concept that allows the machines to be integrated into the cleanroom wall without the development of unwanted particles. (Source: bc-technology GmbH)

The injection molding machine is located in the black area of the new production and logistics center. However, it can be loaded and unloaded from the cleanroom. For the injection area, a horizontally flowing filter fan unit (FFU) was attached to the housing of the injection molding machine as a protective zone, ensuring that the components are always kept under cleanroom conditions. (Source: bc-technology GmbH)

During the planning of the cleanroom, bc-technology had to consider Pajunk's requirement that machines can still be connected afterwards, which are to be put into operation at different times and independently of each other.

Reduce the contamination risk of sensitive components

Weakness in logistics: Optimal technical cleanliness up to final assembly is only possible with the inclusion of transportation, storage, and unpacking

Microscopically small particles can significantly impair the functionality of sensitive components. In industries such as automotive, mechanical engineering, or micromechanics, where ever-smaller components are required, technical cleanliness is therefore becoming increasingly important. To ensure t…

Depending on the requirements, the cleanroom experts offer a special laser protection partition system, laser safety curtains, or PVC cleanroom curtains as lateral enclosures. The appropriate protective enclosure is determined for each application in close consultation with the customer and in accordance with the applicable standards DIN EN 12254 and DIN EN 60825.

To ensure a clean environment without contamination risk when working on optical tables, laser cabins can be used. These are offered by bc-technology in the company's typical modular design, allowing them to be easily adapted to the specific requirements of the customer. (Source: bc-technology)

The compact laser cabins are qualified according to DIN EN ISO 14644-1 and achieve at least cleanroom class 5 through the principle of turbulence-free displacement airflow over the optical table. In the area around the optical table, at least ISO class 6/7 is achieved, thereby minimizing the risk of contamination by personnel. (Source: bc-technology)
