Three steps to control the pressure difference in the clean room of a pharmaceutical factory

The purpose of controlling the pressure difference of each clean room in a pharmaceutical factory is to ensure that when the clean room is working normally or the balance is temporarily disrupted, the air can flow from the area with high cleanliness to the area with low cleanliness, so that the cleanliness of the clean room is not disturbed by polluted air. Clean room pressure difference control is an important part of the design of the purification air conditioning system of the clean room of a pharmaceutical factory, and it is an important measure to ensure the cleanliness of the clean area. The clean room pressure difference control chapter of the "Clean Room Design Specification" GB50073-2013 (hereinafter referred to as the "Clean Specification") includes 5 contents, all of which are clauses for clean room pressure difference control. Article 16 of the "Good Manufacturing Practice for Pharmaceuticals" (revised in 2010) requires that the clean area must have a device to indicate the pressure difference.

 

 Clean room pressure difference control is divided into 3 steps: 

 

The first step is to determine the pressure difference of each clean room in the clean area;

The second step is to calculate the pressure difference air volume of each clean room in the clean area to maintain the pressure difference;

The third step is to take technical measures to ensure the pressure difference air volume of the clean room and maintain the constant pressure difference of the clean room.

 

 1. Determine the pressure difference of each clean room in the clean area 

According to the requirements of Article 6.2.1 and Article 6.2.2 of the "Clean Specification", a certain pressure difference must be maintained between the clean room and the surrounding space, and the positive or negative pressure difference should be maintained according to the production process requirements. The pressure difference between clean rooms of different levels and between clean areas and non-clean areas should not be less than 5 Pa, and the pressure difference between the clean area and the outdoors should not be less than 10 Pa.

 

 ① Pressure difference of each clean room in the same clean area 

In actual engineering, to determine the pressure difference of each clean room in the same clean area, the pressure of each clean room can be compared with the clean area corridor, with the pressure value of the clean area corridor as the benchmark. Because the clean area corridor runs through each clean room, the pressure difference between each clean room and the clean area corridor is determined, and the pressure difference between the clean rooms is also determined. The pressure values ​​of all clean rooms are based on the pressure value of the clean area corridor, so there will be no confusion between the pressure difference values. For example, in a solid preparation workshop, the positive pressure value of the clean area corridor can be determined to be 18 Pa (0 Pa outside the clean area); the crushing room and weighing room have serious dust dispersion, and are generally connected to the clean area corridor through the antechamber. In order to prevent the airflow with high dust content in the room from spreading to other rooms through the corridor, the positive pressure value of the crushing room and weighing room can be determined to be 12 Pa, and the positive pressure value of the antechamber can be determined to be 15 Pa. In this way, the crushing room and weighing room are at negative pressure relative to the antechamber, and the antechamber is at negative pressure relative to the clean area corridor. The airflow flows from the clean area corridor to the antechamber, and from the antechamber to the crushing room and weighing room. The clean and dry equipment storage room is used to store washed and dried equipment. To avoid contamination, the positive pressure value of the room can be determined to be 21 Pa to prevent the airflow from the corridor from flowing into the room.

 

 ② Pressure difference between clean areas of different levels 

To determine the pressure difference between clean areas of different levels, you can first determine the positive pressure of the clean room with a low cleanliness level, and then increase the base of the positive pressure value in sequence to determine the positive pressure of the clean room with a high cleanliness level. For example, the water injection workshop contains a 100,000-level clean area, a 10,000-level clean area, and a partial 100-level clean area. The positive pressure value of the corridor of the 100,000-level clean area is 18 Pa, so it is necessary to increase the overall positive pressure value of the 10,000-level clean area. In short, there should be a positive pressure difference of no less than 5 Pa between the adjacent rooms of the 10,000-level clean area and the 100,000-level clean area. There are rooms in the 100-level clean area in the 100-level clean area. For this, just increase the positive pressure of the rooms in the 100-level clean area.

 

 ③ Pressure difference in clean areas in special cases 

Some pharmaceutical production workshops, such as soft capsule production workshops, have clean rooms with different relative humidity in the same clean area. For this, the relatively dry clean room should be controlled to be positively pressurized relative to the adjacent clean room to prevent wet air from flowing into the dry clean room. The production plant of highly allergenic drugs such as penicillin, and clean rooms with drug powder exposure such as filling rooms should maintain a relative negative pressure.

 

The purpose of controlling the pressure difference of each clean room in a pharmaceutical factory is to ensure that when the clean room is working normally or the balance is temporarily disrupted, the air can flow from the area with high cleanliness to the area with low cleanliness, so that the cleanliness of the clean room is not disturbed by polluted air. Clean room pressure difference control is an important part of the design of the purification air conditioning system of the clean room of a pharmaceutical factory, and it is an important measure to ensure the cleanliness of the clean area. The clean room pressure difference control chapter of the "Clean Room Design Specification" GB50073-2001 (hereinafter referred to as the "Clean Specification") includes 5 contents, all of which are clauses for clean room pressure difference control. Article 16 of the "Good Manufacturing Practice for Pharmaceuticals" (revised in 1998) requires that the clean area must have a device to indicate the pressure difference.

 

 

 2. Determine the pressure differential air volume to maintain the pressure difference 

The pressure differential air volume to maintain the positive pressure difference in each clean room in the clean area needs to be supplemented by outdoor fresh air. Therefore, the size of the positive pressure differential air volume in the clean room directly affects the fresh air ratio of the purification air conditioning system and the energy consumption of the purification air conditioning system. The pressure differential air volume to maintain the negative pressure difference in each clean room in the clean area penetrates into the clean room from the outside of the clean room. In many cases, it is the outdoor air that has not been purified. Therefore, the size of the negative pressure differential air volume in the clean room is directly related to the cleanliness of the negative pressure clean room. At present, the common methods for calculating the pressure differential air volume in the clean room are the gap method and the ventilation number method. The gap method is to estimate the pressure differential air volume of the clean room based on the total length of the gaps such as doors and windows in the clean room. However, in actual applications, the work of counting the number of gaps such as doors and windows is relatively cumbersome and prone to errors and omissions, and is currently less used. The ventilation number method is to estimate the pressure differential air volume of the clean room based on the number of ventilation times in the clean room. In actual engineering applications, this method has the advantages of simplicity, ease of operation, and high accuracy, and is a commonly used method. Article 6.2.3 of the Clean Specifications recommends the ventilation frequency method and proposes to select according to the following data: 1 to 2 times/hour when the pressure difference is 5 Pa, 2 to 4 times/hour when the pressure difference is 10 Pa. Other reference books also have recommended values, such as the Practical Heating and Air Conditioning Design Manual (hereinafter referred to as the Manual), which recommends 0.7 times/hour when the pressure difference is 4.9 Pa, and 1.2 times/hour when the pressure difference is 9.81 Pa. However, in actual applications, people have found that the data recommended by the Clean Specifications tend to be conservative, consume a large amount of pressure difference air volume, and are not economical; while the values ​​recommended by the Manual are more appropriate. In actual projects, it is entirely possible to reduce the pressure difference air volume in the room by strengthening the air tightness of the clean room enclosure structure. According to the size of the pressure difference value of the clean room, the pressure difference should be selected according to the ventilation frequency of 1 to 2 times/hour.

 

The purpose of controlling the pressure difference of each clean room in a pharmaceutical factory is to ensure that when the clean room is working normally or the balance is temporarily disrupted, the air can flow from the area with high cleanliness to the area with low cleanliness, so that the cleanliness of the clean room is not disturbed by polluted air. Clean room pressure difference control is an important part of the design of the purification air conditioning system of the clean room of a pharmaceutical factory, and it is an important measure to ensure the cleanliness of the clean area. The clean room pressure difference control chapter of the "Clean Room Design Specification" GB50073-2001 (hereinafter referred to as the "Clean Specification") includes 5 contents, all of which are clauses for clean room pressure difference control. Article 16 of the "Good Manufacturing Practice for Pharmaceuticals" (revised in 1998) requires that the clean area must have a device to indicate the pressure difference.

 

 3. Maintain constant pressure difference in clean rooms 

The above-mentioned pressure difference value and pressure difference air volume in clean rooms are only theoretical values, which need to be realized by certain technical measures and facilities. In actual projects, there are many ways to control the pressure difference in clean rooms:

 

Under normal circumstances, there are many ways to adopt a constant air volume system, that is, first ensure that the clean room air supply volume is relatively constant, adjust the clean room return air volume or exhaust air volume, so as to control the clean room pressure difference air volume and maintain the clean room pressure difference value; you can also install a manual split multi-leaf regulating valve or butterfly valve on the clean room return (exhaust) air branch pipe to adjust the return (exhaust) air volume and control the indoor pressure difference. Its advantages are simple equipment and effectiveness.

 

The method of adjusting the pressure difference in the clean room during the commissioning of the air conditioning system has the disadvantage that when the pressure difference in the clean room deviates from the set value during the operation of the air conditioning system, it is more troublesome to adjust. This method is used in conjunction with other methods and is one of the common means of controlling the pressure difference in clean rooms in current projects.

 

Installing a damping layer (such as a single-layer non-woven fabric, stainless steel filter, aluminum alloy filter, nylon filter, etc.) at the return (exhaust) air outlet of the clean room can effectively ensure the positive pressure of the clean room, but the filter as the damping layer needs to be replaced frequently to prevent the positive pressure in the clean room from being too high.

 

Install a residual pressure valve on the partition wall of the adjacent room to control the positive pressure. Its advantages are simple and reliable equipment, and its disadvantages are that the residual pressure valve is relatively large in size, the ventilation volume is limited, it is not convenient to install, and it is not convenient to connect with the air duct, and it can only be installed in individual clean rooms.

 

Install an electric actuator system on the valve shaft of the return (exhaust) air branch regulating valve in the clean room, so as to form an electric regulating valve with the corresponding valve. According to the feedback of the clean room pressure difference value, fine-tune the valve opening, and automatically adjust the pressure difference in the clean room to return to the set value. This method is used to control the pressure difference in the clean room more reliably and accurately, and the control system cost is not high. It is widely used in engineering practice. The system can be installed on the return (exhaust) air branch regulating valve of the clean room or the typical clean room that needs to display the pressure difference.

 

Install Venturi air volume control valves on the air supply branch and return (exhaust) branch in the clean room. There are three types of Venturi valves: fixed air volume valves, which can provide stable air flow; bistable valves, which can provide two different air flow rates, namely maximum and minimum flow rates; variable air volume valves, which can control the air flow rate through closed-loop response to instructions and flow feedback signals in less than 1 second. Venturi valves are not affected by changes in duct pressure, have rapid responses (less than 1 second), and are precisely adjusted, but the equipment is relatively expensive and is suitable for use in some biological product production plants that require negative pressure control, toxic and biosafety laboratories (such as P3 biological laboratories), and other places. Because personal safety issues must be considered, the system pressure differential control must be high-precision and highly reliable. In this regard, by using constant air volume valves and bistable valves, the supply and exhaust air volumes of the clean room (or laboratory) can be strictly controlled, thereby forming a stable pressure differential air volume and controlling the pressure differential of the clean room (or laboratory) to be stable; using variable air volume valves to regulate the room so that the flow rate of the supply air duct valve tracks the flow rate of the exhaust air duct valve, a stable pressure differential air volume can be formed and the pressure differential of the clean room (or laboratory) can be controlled to be stable.

Starting with air purification, improving the benefits of animal husbandry and pig farming

 Present status of air filtration system in domestic pig farms 

 

At present, domestic large-scale boar stations and original breeding pig farms are basically equipped with air filtration systems. Based on the fact that pig farm air filtration systems can keep the incidence of pigs in high-risk areas low, the industry has begun to pay attention to the air filtration epidemic prevention system.

 

 Transmission routes of pathogens in animal husbandry 

 

The main transmission routes are inter-field transmission and intra-field transmission. Almost all pathogens can be transmitted between fields through aerosols, mainly considering the pathogen load and meteorological conditions. As long as aerosols can be formed and are infectious, inter-field aerosol transmission can occur. Infection prevention is mainly to prevent inter-field transmission. Non-diffusion and detection and elimination are mainly to prevent intra-field transmission.

 

 Viruses are transmitted in the form of vectors 

Usually, the diameter of bioaerosol and dust particles is 0.3~5.0μm

SIV (swine influenza virus):  0.08μm-0.12μm

PRRSV (blue ear disease):  0.05μm-0.065μm

FMDV (oral disease virus):  0.022μm-0.03μm

PCV2 (porcine circovirus type I):  0.017μm-0.022μm

PRV (pseudorabies):  0.15μm-0.198μm

African swine fever:  0.175μm-0.2150μm

 

As can be seen from the above, the diameter of viruses is very small, but in general, viruses and bacterial pathogens can only be transmitted by attaching to carriers, mainly in the form of bioaerosols. The diameter of common dust particles or bioaerosols in nature is usually 0.3μm~5.0μm. Air filters can filter virus carriers, thereby playing a role in virus filtering.

 

 Filtration principle 

 

Air filters do not directly filter viruses or bacteria. What they actually filter are the transmission media of pathogens, namely dust particles or other aerosols. Pathogens themselves cannot spread through autonomous flight and need to be attached to a medium to spread. The diameter of this medium in nature is usually 0.3~1 micron, so air filters also filter these 0.3~1 micron particles to intercept bacteria-carrying particles.

 

At present, domestic large-scale pig farms are equipped with air filtration systems to filter particles attached with these viruses to reduce the risk of virus transmission.

 

Currently, common ventilation and filtration methods include negative pressure ventilation and filtration, positive pressure ventilation and filtration, and balanced ventilation and filtration. The choice of ventilation and filtration method depends on the level of air cleanliness required in the pig farm. At present, the negative pressure ventilation solution has good cooling effect and relatively economical energy consumption, which is adopted by most large-scale pig farms in China.

 

 

▶In the entire pig house air ventilation system, two or three layers of filters are installed on the outside of the air filter to clean the pig house production environment and isolate the invasion and cross infection of mosquitoes, flies and rats.

▶The boar house generally uses G4 coarse-effect filter + W-type high-efficiency air filter to form the main filter wall. The main filter wall blocks airborne pig farm pathogens, and the purification efficiency reaches L9. The long-term purification efficiency of 0.3μm aerosols or particles is greater than 95%.

▶The ceiling filter system is installed on the pig house ventilation window for ventilation of pig houses in low temperature seasons under negative pressure ventilation mode.

Technical points of microbial room, sterile room and positive room

The commonly used functional room configurations for microbial testing in medical device production include: sterile room, microbial room and positive room. They are important facilities mainly used to ensure the sterile environment and microbial control in the production process of medical devices.

 

 01. Functions of each laboratory 

 

1) Sterile room: mainly used for resuscitation and propagation of bacterial strains, sterility testing of samples and other tests.

 

2) Microbial room: mainly provides a relatively clean environment for testing. The experimental content is mainly limit inspection, that is, testing the bacterial content in a specified amount of sample.

 

3) Positive room: mainly used for positive control, such as effect verification, bacterial species identification and other tests or tests that require the addition of bacteria. The samples in the positive room basically need to be added with bacteria (such as the bactericidal effect of the bactericidal agent, a certain amount of bacterial solution must be added to the bactericidal agent to verify the bactericidal effectiveness).

 

 

 02. Laboratory requirements 

 

 Microbial room 

(1) Cleanliness requirements: The cleanliness requirement of the microbial room is Class C.

(2) Pressure difference requirements: The static pressure difference between adjacent rooms with different positive pressure and air cleanliness levels should be greater than 5Pa, and the static pressure difference between the clean room and the outdoor atmosphere should be greater than 10Pa.

(3) Area requirements: Generally, it is an independent room of 4-10 square meters.

(4) Main equipment equipped: culture medium, incubator, microscope and other experimental equipment, clean bench (or isolator).

(5) Indoor temperature and humidity are controlled at 18-26℃, 40-60%.

 

 Aseptic room: 

(1) Cleanliness requirements: The cleanliness requirement of the aseptic room is Class C, and the cleanliness of the operation area must reach Class A or a clean bench of the same level should be placed.

(2) Pressure difference requirements: The static pressure difference between adjacent rooms with different positive pressure and air cleanliness levels should be greater than 5Pa, and the static pressure difference between the clean room and the outdoor atmosphere should be greater than 10Pa.

(3) Area requirements: Generally, it is an independent room of 4-10 square meters.

(4) Main equipment equipped: clean bench (or biological safety cabinet).

(5) Sterile laboratories need good lighting, avoid humidity, and be far away from toilets and contaminated areas. A buffer room should be set up outside the sterile room, with staggered door directions to prevent airflow from bringing in bacteria.

(6) Indoor temperature and humidity should be controlled at 18-26℃, 40-60%.

 

 Positive room: 

(1) Cleanliness requirements: The cleanliness requirement for the positive room is Class C

(2) Pressure difference requirements: The positive room is at negative pressure relative to the buffer room, generally ≥5Pa. The first shift should maintain positive pressure for changing shoes, the second shift should maintain a positive pressure of no less than 10Pa for the first shift, and the positive control room should maintain a relative negative pressure relative to the buffer room.

(3) Area requirements: Generally, it is an independent room of 4-10 square meters.

(4) Main equipment: biological safety cabinet (there are also vertical laminar flow workbenches).

(5) The first shift, second shift, buffer room, and positive control room can use a purification air supply system. This system is a fresh air system and the air cannot be recycled. Exhaust air can be discharged directly to the outside, but it must be filtered by high efficiency before being discharged to the outside.

(6) Indoor temperature and humidity are controlled at 18-26℃, 40-60%.

 

 

 03. Other requirements 

 

(1) Sterile laboratories, microbiological laboratories, and positive laboratories should be separated from each other. Because the samples in the microbiological room may contain bacteria, while the samples in the positive room basically need to be added with bacteria. Therefore, the microbiological room and the positive room cannot be mixed. If conditions permit, they need to be built separately. Otherwise, false positives will appear when doing limit tests in the positive room, and bacterial tests in the microbiological room will pollute the environment of the microbiological room.

 

(2) The microbiological room is not for sterile testing. Sterility testing should be performed in a separate sterile room.

 

(3) The laboratory should also have supporting preparation areas, culture areas, disinfection areas and other auxiliary rooms.

 

(4) Whether it is a microbiological room, a positive room or a sterile room, the common characteristics of these rooms are that the floors and walls are smooth and hard after decoration, and the instruments and equipment are simply arranged, which is easy to clean.

 

(5) Microbiological rooms, positive rooms and sterile rooms must take necessary disinfection measures to ensure that the laboratory clean conditions are qualified, such as setting the ultraviolet sterilization lamp to 2~2.5W/square meter.

 

(6) The laboratory should provide sufficient illumination according to production requirements. The illumination value should not be lower than 300LX.

 

 

The construction of the laboratory must follow the principle of coexistence of safety and economy, especially the construction of biosafety experimental sites, which should be considered from the perspective of biosafety and the possible impact of cross-contamination on experimental results, to ensure that the unidirectional air flow area, work surface and internal environment of each area meet the standards.

Hairui's Formulation Guide on Crafting High-Performance Foam Rubber Products

In our modern world, foam rubber products have become ubiquitous, finding applications across a multitude of industries. But have you ever wondered about the intricacies of their production? Unlike thermoplastic foams, the manufacture of foam rubber presents a unique challenge: synchronizing the vulcanization crosslinking rate with the foaming agent's decomposition rate. It's a delicate dance, if you will, where success hinges not only on the crosslinking speed but also on the fundamental similarity between vulcanization and foaming agent decomposition. Both processes, at their core, involve gas expansion against the rubber matrix's resistance.

 

 

 

Selection of Base Materials

 

When it comes to foam rubber production, choosing the right base rubber materials is crucial. Think of it as selecting the perfect ingredients for a gourmet meal – each component must serve a specific purpose. For products requiring softness, moderate strength, and good elasticity, natural rubber often takes center stage. But that's not all – synthetic rubbers frequently join the party to meet specific product needs.

Consider, for instance, the production of oil-resistant foam products. In this case, a careful balance of nitrile rubber and chloroprene rubber is essential. Sometimes, to satisfy special product requirements, manufacturers might even opt for a combination of two or more rubber types. It's like creating a custom blend of coffee beans to achieve the perfect flavor profile.

 

 

Base material for foam rubber production

 

 

 

Unleashing the Power of Foaming Agents

 

Foaming agents are the rising stars of foam rubber production, directly impacting both efficiency and quality. At Hairui Rubber, we leverage a strategic blend of organic and inorganic foaming agents to achieve optimal results. Inorganic agents, like sodium bicarbonate and ammonium bicarbonate, are the sprinters of the foaming world, decomposing rapidly at relatively low temperatures. However, the high permeability of the gases they produce can pose challenges in creating closed-cell foam structures. That's why we often pair them with their organic counterparts, such as azodicarbonamide and nitroso compounds, which are the endurance athletes of the foaming world, decomposing at temperatures above 200°C.

 

 

The Choreography of Vulcanization

 

The vulcanization system is the choreographer in the intricate dance of foam rubber production. At Hairui Rubber, we meticulously synchronize the vulcanization process with the foaming agent's decomposition, ensuring a harmonious and high-quality outcome. By carefully selecting and adjusting the vulcanization system to match the foaming system, or vice versa, we can achieve the optimal balance for successful foaming.

 

 

Reinforcing Fillers to Strengthening the Foam

 

Reinforcing fillers, such as carbon black and silica, are the strength trainers for our foam rubber products. By incorporating these fillers, we can significantly improve the strength and stiffness of our offerings. Additionally, we leverage mineral fillers like calcium carbonate and kaolin to enhance processing properties and reduce costs. As with any good training regimen, moderation is key – we typically use 20 to 40 parts per hundred rubber (phr) of these fillers.

 

 

the mixing of base rubber

 

 

 

Plasticizers to Enhancing Flexibility

 

Plasticizers in our foam rubber formulations are akin to yoga instructors, improving flexibility and overall performance. We carefully select plasticizers that possess excellent plasticizing effects, require low dosages, have rapid absorption rates, and exhibit good compatibility with the rubber. For products requiring high expansion ratios, we incorporate larger amounts of these flexibility enhancers to ensure optimal results.

 

 

Antioxidants, the Guardians of Longevity

 

Foam rubber products are more susceptible to aging due to their porous structure and large surface area. That's why we incorporate antioxidants, our guardians against the ravages of time and environmental factors. By selecting the right antioxidants, like MB, and using higher dosages than in non-foam rubber products, we can ensure the longevity and performance of our foam rubber offerings.

 

plastic manufacturing

 

 

 

Crafting the Perfect Foam Rubber Formula

 

In conclusion, formulating foam rubber products is a complex process that requires careful consideration of multiple factors. It's like conducting a symphony, where each component – from base materials and foaming agents to vulcanization systems, reinforcing fillers, plasticizers, and antioxidants – must play its part in perfect harmony.

At Hairui Rubber, we approach foam rubber formulation like conducting a symphony. By meticulously optimizing these elements and their interactions, we are able to produce high-quality foam rubber products that meet the diverse needs of our international B2B clients.

Demystifying WLL, SWL, and MBS in Webbing Slings Understanding Load Capacities and Safety Factors

Webbing slings are essential lifting tools used across a variety of industries for safe and efficient load handling. When working with webbing slings, it is crucial to understand key specifications such as Working Load Limit (WLL), Safe Working Load (SWL), and Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS). In this blog post, we will delve into these terms and explore their significance in ensuring safe lifting operations.

Working Load Limit (WLL):

The Working Load Limit (WLL) is the maximum load capacity that a webbing sling is designed to safely support under normal working conditions. It represents the recommended weight that can be lifted without compromising the sling's integrity. WLL is typically stated as a specific weight or capacity, such as 1 ton (2,000 lbs) or 5 tons (10,000 lbs), and it is determined by applying a safety factor to the Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) of the sling.

Safe Working Load (SWL):

The term Safe Working Load (SWL) is often used interchangeably with WLL. It refers to the maximum load that a lifting device, such as a webbing sling, can safely handle without causing damage or failure. The SWL is determined by considering factors such as the sling's WLL, the angle of the lift, and any additional safety margins specified by industry regulations or standards.

Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS):

The Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) refers to the ultimate load capacity or breaking point of a webbing sling. It is the maximum load that the sling can withstand before it permanently deforms or fails catastrophically. The MBS is determined through rigorous testing procedures and is typically significantly higher than the WLL or SWL to provide an added margin of safety.

Safety Factors:

Safety factors are applied to the MBS to establish the WLL and SWL of webbing slings. These factors account for uncertainties, such as variations in manufacturing, environmental conditions, and dynamic forces during lifting. The standard safety factor for webbing slings is usually 5:1 or 7:1, depending on regional regulations and industry standards. This means that the WLL and SWL of a sling are calculated by dividing the MBS by the specified safety factor.

Accurate load calculations are crucial for selecting the appropriate webbing sling and ensuring safe lifting operations. Factors such as the weight of the load, the sling's angle of use, the type of hitch or configuration, and environmental conditions all affect the load capacity. It is essential to consult load charts, guidelines, or seek professional advice to determine the correct sling and lifting method based on the specific application.

Understanding the concepts of WLL, SWL, and MBS is fundamental to the safe and effective use of webbing slings. Adhering to the recommended guidelines, load calculations, and safety factors ensures that the slings can support the intended load within their rated capacity. By prioritizing safety and compliance with industry standards, businesses can mitigate the risks associated with lifting operations and enhance safety.webbing sling

Unveiling the Manufacturing Process of 1100T Slings How We Ensure Top Quality

When it comes to heavy lifting operations, having reliable and high-quality equipment is essential. One such crucial component is the 1100T sling, widely used in various industries for lifting heavy loads. In this blog post, we will take you on a journey through the manufacturing process of 1100T slings, revealing the stringent measures we employ to ensure top quality and optimal performance.

Material Selection:

The foundation of any quality sling lies in the choice of materials. For the manufacturing of our 1100T slings, we carefully select robust and durable materials that can withstand high load capacities and adverse conditions. The primary material used is premium-grade polyester webbing, known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to abrasion and UV degradation.

Rigorous Testing:

To guarantee the safety and reliability of our 1100T slings, our manufacturing process includes rigorous testing at multiple stages. The slings undergo thorough load testing to determine their Working Load Limit (WLL) and Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS). These tests ensure that the slings can handle the specified weight limits and maintain their integrity even under extreme conditions.
