Cleanroom Capabilities

Certain markets and end-use applications require products that are clean — free of dust, dirt, debris and particles. This is particularly important in electronics applications where finished products must meet tight cleanliness specifications. Our ISO Class 7 certified cleanroom facilities feature the following:

  • coating (one or two sided)
  • drying (thermal and UV)
  • laminating capabilities
  • a number of surface conditioning options

COATING APPLICATION TECHNIQUES

Multiple coating application techniques can be utilized to best match target deposition and coating rheology requirements. We can use solvent-based, water-based, or 100 percent solids coatings, which can be cured via either thermal or UV curing methods.

CONTROLLING CRITICAL CONDITIONS

We have a self-contained feed system for coatings, with an ultra high-level filtration down to 0.2 microns. The coater utilizes an air floatation dryer which reduces the likelihood of scratches in the substrate and improves drying efficiency. In addition to minimizing dirt, dust and debris, the cleanroom environment allows us to control all critical conditions, removing such variables as seasonable temperature and humidity changes, all of which can have a significant impact on chemical reactions and polymer surface formation.

SHORT RUN TRIALS & PROTOTYPING

You can utilize the facility for short-run trials, especially for products that must meet extremely high standards. We can offer initial prototyping capabilities for products as narrow as 12 inches in width and scale up to production capacity at wider widths. This can be ideal for processes with high-cost raw materials.
