Vacuum pumps, as the “invisible power source” of manufacturing industry, provide key support for each process by creating negative pressure environment. As a
ZAKF Screw Air Compressor manufacturer with 20 years of industry experience and 60,000㎡ production base, our vacuum pumps have a monthly production capacity of 500 units, support CE/ASME and other global certifications for customization, and rely on 7 overseas warehouses to achieve 15 days' extremely fast shipping in Southeast Asia / Middle East. The following six core scenarios analyze the strategic value of vacuum pumps in the manufacturing industry and
ZAKF's specialized solutions.
Semiconductor and electronics manufacturing: vacuum guarantee for precision process
Core Role:
Chip packaging and etching: Provide ≥99.999% purity vacuum environment (vacuum ≤1Pa) to avoid oxidation of gold wires and impurity contamination. For example, a wafer fab in Taiwan uses ZAKF's oil-free scroll vacuum pumps to achieve 14,000 hours of continuous operation in LCD panel evaporation process, with the yield rate increased to 99.8%.
Drying of electronic devices: Vacuum environment reduces the boiling point and realizes low-temperature drying (e.g. lithium battery pole piece drying temperature ≤60℃). ZAKF customized explosion-proof vacuum pump for an electronic factory in South Korea, together with nitrogen gas blowing at dew point of -60℃, makes the water content of pole piece <0.1%.
ZAKF technical advantages:
5-axis machining center to ensure the accuracy of scroll disk ±0.003mm, gas oxygen content <1ppm, in line with ISO 14644-1 Class 5 clean room standards;
monthly production of 2000 sets of post-processing equipment supporting the drying system, to achieve the “vacuum pump + nitrogen generator” all-in-one delivery.
Second, food and pharmaceutical industry: asepsis and freshness of the vacuum revolution
core role:
vacuum packaging preservation: exclude oxygen to extend shelf life, a Southeast Asian cookie factory using ZAKF oil vacuum pump (flow rate of 30m³/h), so that the shelf life of cookies from 60 days to extend to 180 days, reducing the loss of 120,000 U.S. dollars a year.
Pharmaceutical freeze-drying process: creating ≤10Pa vacuum environment, a US biopharmaceutical company uses ASME certified oil-free vacuum pumps to ensure >95% active ingredient retention in mRNA vaccine freeze-drying in compliance with PIC/S GMP requirements.
ZAKF customized solutions:
food-grade 316L stainless steel adsorption tower with FDA-compliant coating to avoid lubricant contamination;
integrated condensate management system to ensure the cleanliness of the pharmaceutical workshop, a pharmaceutical company in India has a 100% microbiological test pass rate.
Chemical and Petroleum: Vacuum Enabling Explosion Protection and Process Optimization
Core Role:
Reactor Vacuum Degassing: Removal of flammable and explosive gases, a petrochemical project in the Middle East used ZAKF ATEX explosion-proof vacuum pumps, which continuously operated for 6,000 hours at 50°C and passed 1.5 times the design pressure test without any safety accidents.
Crude oil distillation efficiency: Vacuum environment reduces distillation temperature. A Russian refinery adopted ZAKF screw vacuum pumps to increase crude oil processing capacity by 15% and reduce energy consumption by 20%.
ZAKF's innovative design:
explosion-proof motor with anti-static coating, compliant with 2014/34/EU explosion-proof standard;
Desert models are equipped with IP55 dustproof radiators and maintenance intervals are extended to 6 months.
Metal working and heat treatment: Vacuum breakthrough for oxidation-free manufacturing
Core Role:
Vacuum Welding Protection: Avoid oxidization of stainless steel weld seams. An automotive parts factory in Germany uses ZAKF high-purity vacuum pumps (purity ≥ 99.9%) to reduce the defective rate of welding of titanium alloy parts from 0.8% to 0.1%.
Powder Metallurgy Sintering: Excluding impurity gases, a Japanese precision instrument factory uses ZAKF's customized model to sinter under 10-30Pa vacuum, increasing material strength by 30%.
ZAKF capacity support:
2500 sets/month air compressor capacity provides supporting gas source, realizing “air compressor + vacuum pump” one-stop delivery;
7 warehousing bases ensure that European customers can get the spare parts of vacuum system in 15 days.
V. Photovoltaic and New Energy: Vacuum Engines for High-Efficiency Production
Core Role:
Solar cell encapsulation: vacuum lamination to remove air bubbles, a photovoltaic power plant in Australia uses ZAKF containerized vacuum pumps with solar power supply system, running off-grid for 8,000 hours, with power generation efficiency increased by 5%.
Lithium battery liquid injection: vacuum environment prevents electrolyte hydrolysis. A Ningde Times supporting plant uses ZAKF oil-free vacuum pumps (dew point ≤ -60℃), and the defective rate of liquid injection is less than 0.05%.
ZAKF adaptable solution:
Wide voltage design (220V±15%), adaptable to the fluctuation of power grid in Southeast Asia;
Residual heat recovery module utilizes the vacuum pump to dissipate heat, and a Vietnam factory saves $15,000 in annual hot water cost.
VI. 3D Printing and Surface Treatment: Vacuum Cornerstone of Precision Manufacturing
Core Role:
Metal 3D Printing and Molding: High vacuum (≤0.1Pa) prevents oxidation of metal powder.
Vacuum Coating Process: Creates a clean deposition environment. A Shenzhen electronics factory adopts ZAKF scroll vacuum pump to achieve film thickness in mobile phone screen coating. A Shenzhen electronics factory uses ZAKF scroll vacuum pumps to achieve film thickness uniformity of ±1% in cell phone screen coating.
ZAKF technology guarantee:
intelligent monitoring system adjusts vacuum level in real time, response time ≤ 0.3 seconds;
ASME B31.3 certified model passed 150% pressure test, suitable for aviation-grade manufacturing needs.
