Plastikos in Medical Molding
Plastikos' expansion plans will consist of a new custom 88 ton Arburg Allrounder that is equipped with a clean air module, located above the clamping unit. Once parts are molded within the clean air module, they will be transported through an enclosed conveyor that leads to a Class 10,000 (ISO 7) cleanroom. The purpose of this molding technique is to transfer the product without contamination to the decentralized cleanroom where final inspection will take place.
Additionally, this concept offers a high-quality cleanroom without decreasing efficiency since the size of the clean room can be drastically reduced. All operations such as inspection, packaging, labeling, assembly, etc. can be performed in the controlled cleanroom environment.
