Unique igus cleanroom laboratory for IPA
®
cleanroom Class 1 components - innovative
cleanroom technology successfully on the test rig!
In semiconductor manufacturing, components such as
e-chains ® and cables must meet the highest standards
regarding their release of particles. In order to be able to develop
new motion plastics that are suitable for use in cleanrooms,
the Fraunhofer IPA, working as a development and certifi cation
partner on behalf of igus ® , has now designed and built a tailor-
made cleanroom laboratory with an IPA cleanroom Class 1
system in Cologne. In the new laboratory, customer tests
and new developments can be carried out in advance under
real conditions within a very short time. Furthermore, our new
cleanroom laboratory helps considerably in the continuous
further development of our cleanroom products and materials.
