Key Considerations in the Layout Design of Purification Workshops
2024.11.11
In modern industrial production and scientific research fields, the importance of purification workshops is self - evident. It is a key environment for ensuring product quality and experimental accuracy, and the layout design of the purification workshop is the cornerstone of the successful construction of this environment. As a professional company in the industry, Guangzhou Kunling Purification Equipment Co., Ltd. will discuss in - depth with you today the key considerations in the layout design of purification workshops.
I. Technological Process and Material Flow Direction: The Arteries and Veins of the Workshop
1. Technological Process - Oriented
The layout of the purification workshop should first be designed according to the production or experimental technological process. The sequence and connection mode of each step directly affect the operation efficiency of the entire workshop. For example, in an electronic chip manufacturing workshop, from silicon wafer cleaning, lithography, etching to packaging, each step has specific environmental requirements and sequence. The layout design should ensure the smooth progress of these technological steps, reduce unnecessary material handling and personnel movement, avoid cross - contamination, and improve production efficiency.
2. Material Flow Planning
The direction of material flow is another important consideration in the layout of the purification workshop. The input of raw materials, the transfer of work - in - progress, and the output of finished products all need to be rationally planned. Special material entrances and exits should be set up, and the passages for clean and contaminated materials should be distinguished. Adopting a unidirectional material flow mode can minimize the risk of contamination. At the same time, the material temporary storage area and the parking area of handling equipment should be reasonably configured to ensure the orderly and efficient circulation of materials in the workshop.
II. Cleanliness Level Zoning: Hierarchical Management to Protect Purity
1. Clarify Cleanliness Levels
Different production or experimental activities have different requirements for the clean environment. Therefore, in the layout of the purification workshop, different cleanliness level areas should be clearly divided according to actual needs. For example, in pharmaceutical production, the filling area of injections may need to reach an ISO 5 - level cleanliness, while the outer packaging area can be relatively less stringent. By reasonably dividing the cleanliness levels, resources such as air purification systems and personnel protective equipment can be targeted for configuration.
2. Prevent Cross - Contamination
Effective isolation measures should be set up between different cleanliness level areas. Buffer rooms, airlocks, etc. are commonly used means. These areas can prevent air, dust and other pollutants in low - cleanliness areas from entering high - cleanliness areas by controlling the direction of air flow and pressure difference. At the same time, when personnel and materials enter and exit different cleanliness level areas, the corresponding purification procedures, such as personnel air showers and material disinfection transfer, should be strictly followed.
III. Personnel Flow Planning: People - Oriented, Orderly Passage
1. Design of Personnel Passageways
The movement of personnel in the purification workshop will bring a certain risk of contamination, so the design of personnel passageways is crucial. Independent personnel entrances and exits should be set up, and dressing rooms, hand - washing and disinfection facilities, and air - shower rooms should be equipped at the entrance. The width of the passageway should meet the needs of personnel passage and emergency evacuation, while avoiding being too wide to cause air flow disorder. In addition, according to the work area of personnel in the workshop, the walking route of personnel should be reasonably planned to reduce unnecessary crossing of different cleanliness level areas.
2. Layout of Rest and Auxiliary Areas
Considering the work intensity and needs of personnel, rest areas, toilets and other auxiliary areas should be reasonably set up in the purification workshop. These areas should be effectively isolated from the production or experimental areas to avoid affecting the clean environment. The rest area can be set in a relatively low - cleanliness area, but good ventilation and sanitary conditions should be maintained to provide a comfortable rest environment for the staff and ensure their energy and efficiency during working hours.
IV. Equipment Layout: Scientific Arrangement, Efficient Collaboration
1. Placement of Production Equipment
The layout of production equipment should combine the technological process and space utilization efficiency. For large - scale equipment, the installation position and maintenance space should be planned in advance to ensure that the normal operation and maintenance of the equipment will not interfere with the clean environment of the workshop and other production activities. At the same time, factors such as heat, vibration, and noise generated during the operation of the equipment should be considered, and corresponding isolation or protection measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on the surrounding environment and other equipment.
2. Configuration of Auxiliary Equipment
In addition to production equipment, the purification workshop also needs to be equipped with various auxiliary equipment, such as air purification units, air - conditioning systems, vacuum pumps, etc. The layout of these equipment should be convenient for maintenance and management, and at the same time, it should coordinate with the production equipment. For example, the position of the air purification unit should be conducive to the even delivery and circulation of air to ensure that the cleanliness of the entire workshop meets the requirements.
V. Space Utilization and Flexibility: Expanding the Possibilities of Development
1. Efficient Use of Space
The construction cost of purification workshops is relatively high, so space should be fully utilized in the layout design. Multi - layer shelves, three - dimensional warehouses, etc. can be used to improve the space utilization rate of material storage. For some infrequently used equipment or tools, special storage areas can be set up, and reasonable storage methods can be adopted to reduce the occupied area. At the same time, the space above the ceiling and below the ground should be rationally planned, such as laying underground pipes and installing ceiling - mounted equipment.
2. Consider Future Development
When designing the layout of the purification workshop, it should also be forward - looking and consider the future development needs of the enterprise. Reserve a certain amount of space for equipment upgrades, the introduction of new processes, or an increase in production. Adopt adjustable partitions, movable equipment foundations, etc. to make the workshop layout easily modifiable in the future, reducing the cost and difficulty of the enterprise's later development.
The layout design of the purification workshop is a complex and systematic project, which requires comprehensive consideration of multiple key factors such as technological process, cleanliness level, personnel flow, equipment layout, and space utilization. Guangzhou Kunling Purification Equipment Co., Ltd., with rich experience and professional technology, is committed to creating a scientific, reasonable, efficient, and stable layout for purification workshops for customers, providing a strong environmental guarantee for the development of enterprises.
