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
