We manufacture containment systems for industries such as pharmaceutical, medical, chemical, and more. Our solutions are designed for high-performance environments that require safety, efficiency, and strict containment, especially in the handling of sensitive materials or processes.
One of our recent projects, built by our skilled engineers, is a Two-Port Isolator Box made entirely from Clear Cast Acrylic. This isolator was specifically designed for use in pharmaceutical aseptic systems where protection and safety are essential.
What our client required
Our client required a micro-isolator with two glove hand ports and a secure front-facing access door for handling sensitive materials in a sterile, controlled environment.
The specifications were precise to ensure the isolator could meet rigorous safety standards while maintaining visibility and ease of use.
Manufacturing Process
Material Selection: The isolator was made from Clear Cast Acrylic, chosen for its optical clarity, chemical resistance, and strength. This material ensures excellent visibility and durability in containment applications.
CNC Machining: The acrylic sheets were cut and shaped using CNC machining for precise edges and perfect fit, according to client specifications.
Hand Port Creation: Two precision-cut oval glove ports were created with undercuts, grooves, and threaded holes for additional components.
Bonding and Assembly: UV bonding was used to seal the components, providing airtight joints without affecting the acrylic's clarity.
Final Applications
This Two-Port Acrylic Isolator is now being used in a pharmaceutical setting where sterile containment is crucial. It allows operators to manipulate materials through the glove ports while maintaining a fully isolated environment. Such systems are integral to processes like drug formulation, biological sample handling, and aseptic testing.
At WKH Group, we pride ourselves on offering highly customisable solutions for any industry that requires precision engineering, safety, and quality. Whether you need a single custom isolator or a large-scale containment solution, no project is too complex for our team.
