Case Study:

Diptech Printer Cleanroom

Size: 1,300 ft²

Location: Garland, TX

Timeline: 5 months

Overview

Airtho partnered with a glass manufacturing facility to design and deliver a controlled cleanroom environment supporting a high-precision Diptech glass-printing process. The project required a modular ISO 8 system with reliable airflow and temperature control. To achieve the manufacturer’s strict environmental requirements, Airtho engineered a fully integrated solution combining HEPA filtration, recirculation airflow, and a high-capacity VRF cooling system.

Challenge

The client needed a cleanroom capable of maintaining consistent ISO 8 performance while housing a Diptech printer that generated significant heat and required stable temperature and humidity levels.

Solution

Airtho engineered a cleanroom system optimized for airflow performance, thermal stability, and seamless facility integration:

  • High-Efficiency Airflow Design: Achieved optimized airflow with Airtho HEPA Hub Kit utilizing an ultra-high efficiency ECM motor and local speed controller, ceiling supply targeted for client critical production area, and low wall returns for consistent room air circulation.

  • VRF Cooling & Makeup Air System: To handle the printer’s heat load and required makeup air, Airtho provided a 10-ton VRF heat pump system with variable speed system.

  • Intelligrid™ Ceiling System: The cleanroom ceiling was constructed using Airtho’s Intelligrid™ system, which supports HEPA filters, LED panel lighting, and blank panels to provide a clean, modular platform for integrating mechanical distribution.

Results

  • Stable ISO 8 cleanroom performance supporting Diptech printer accuracy

  • Reliable temperature and humidity control with a high-capacity VRF system

  • Efficient recirculation system utilizing ultra-efficient Airtho HEPA Hub Kit

  • Modular Intelligrid™ system enabling clean, maintainable overhead infrastructure
