The Brief
Teramount, acquired by Molex, develops silicon photonics packaging for high-bandwidth optical connectivity in AI data centers and high-performance computing. Its new cleanroom in Jerusalem needed engineering supervision to get the mechanical work, contamination control and schedule right.
What We Did
- Construction supervision: engineering oversight and quality control on site, checking the contractors’ work against the mechanical, electrical and architectural drawings.
- HVAC and environment: supervised installation and balancing of the air handling, HEPA filtration, laminar flow and pressure cascade for photonics assembly.
- Clean utilities: monitored the hook-up and integrity testing of the process gases, clean dry air and vacuum.
- Commissioning and hand-over: site walk-throughs, snag lists and construction quality audits before commissioning and hand-over to ISO cleanroom standards.
Result
A cleanroom built to specification and handed over to ISO standards, without costly rework.
