Rehm Thermal Systems has set up a clean room at its factory in Dongguan, China, to ensure production systems are free of tiny particles.

For the manufacturing of many products, such as semiconductors, clean rooms are a mandatory requirement for high quality and product safety, as even the smallest impurities can damage the product. 

For certain industries, such as medical technology, aerospace technology or the semiconductor industry, particularly high hygiene requirements apply to the workplace: here, the concentration of microparticles (such as dust, exhaust fumes or pollen) in the room air must not exceed a certain limit value. A room that fulfils these requirements is known as a clean room.

Clean rooms are categorised into special clean room classes depending on the particle density. Their operation is subject to strict standards: for example, the furnishings, equipment and machines must also fulfil the requirements of the cleanroom in order to prevent damage caused by contamination during production and to achieve high-quality end results.

To ensure that its clean room meets the highest international standards, Rehm Thermal Systems commissioned comprehensive tests. These demonstrated that the clean room fully fulfils the requirements of the GB 50472-2008 (CN) and ISO Class 5 (EU) standards (US old: Class 100).

This makes the clean room ideal for the production of the VisionX Semico, a reflow soldering system for semiconductor production, for instance, in order to protect the highly complex circuits of the semiconductor components from impurities that could affect the functionality of the components.
