Efficient and Material-Friendly Separation
Separation Switches for Injection Moulding & Cleanroom Applications
Precise part separation for maximum process safety
PETEK separation switches enable reliable and automated sorting of injection-moulded parts directly after removal from the mould. They form a central interface between the injection moulding machine, automation and quality assurance, contributing significantly to the stability and efficiency of your production processes.
Drawing on our many years of experience in cleanroom and injection moulding automation, we develop solutions precisely matched to your application — from highly automated series processes to sensitive components with the highest quality requirements.
Cleanroom-Optimised Design
- Welded construction in polypropylene (PP)
→ chemically resistant, corrosion-free and particle-free
- Smooth, flow-optimised inner surfaces
→ minimal particle generation and gentle part transport
- Robust design for continuous industrial operation
- Ideal for cleanroom and GMP applications
Flexible Sorting Logic (2 to 5 Ways)
Our separation switches can be precisely adapted to your process requirements.
Typical sorting logic:
- OK / NOK parts
- Start-up / production
- Good parts / rejects / inspection parts
- QA or special diverters
Drive and Control Concepts
Optimal solutions depending on the application:
Electric
- → High precision and repeatability
- → Ideal for high cycle rates
Pneumatic
- → Robust and cost-effective
- → Easy integration into existing systems
Integration into existing controls:
- Injection moulding machines
- Robots / handling
- External PLC
- QA systems
Seamless Integration into Your Production
Our separation switches are individually designed for:
- Injection moulding machines
- Conveyor technology
- Depot stations
Result: seamless integration into your existing production and cleanroom environment
Options for Maximum Performance
- Inspection openings for easy maintenance
- QA drawers for sampling

- Vibrators to prevent bridging
- Air assistance for reliable part guidance
Summary
Your Benefits
Maximum process safety and repeatability
Flexible and scalable sorting concepts
Gentle part handling
Cleanroom-compliant design
Individual project solution instead of off-the-shelf product
Safe and Cleanroom-Compliant Transport
Cleanroom Conveyor Technology
Low-contamination material flow in the cleanroom
PETEK's enclosed conveyor solutions ensure safe and controlled transport of components within sensitive production environments. They are specifically designed to minimise particle emissions while guaranteeing maximum process safety.
The closed design enables a continuous, clean material flow — from removal through to packaging.
Cleanroom-Optimised Design
- Closed, smooth surfaces
- Low-wear components
- Stainless steel and high-performance plastics
- Easy-to-maintain enclosure systems
Minimisation of particle emissions and contamination risks

Quality Assurance and Traceability
Distribution Stations for Cavity-Pure Deposit
Traceability and purity at cavity level
PETEK distribution stations enable targeted, cavity-separated deposit of injection-moulded parts under controlled cleanroom conditions.
As the link between production, quality assurance and the cleanroom, they ensure structured, traceable and low-contamination parts logistics.
Cavity-Separated Deposit
- Unambiguous assignment of each component
- Traceability at cavity level
- Optimal basis for QA processes
- Ideal for multi-cavity moulds
Cleanroom and Cleanliness Concept
- Design as "room-in-room" solution
- Suitable for ISO 7 and better
- Local clean zones possible (e.g. deposit areas)
- Compatible with laminar flow systems
Efficient Material Flow
- Ergonomic container removal
- Clear separation of production and logistics
- Defined and clean transport routes
Flexible Extensions
- Connection to cleanrooms via material airlocks
- Integration into automation and conveyor systems
- Combination with QA, packaging or assembly processes
Individual System Design
Modular and scalable — adapted to:
- Mould size
- Number of cavities
- Container concepts
- Degree of automation
Summary
Your Benefits
Maximum transparency and process control
Cleanroom-grade and safe parts deposit
High flexibility for future requirements
Optimised production and logistics processes
