The Challenge: Creating a Climate-Controlled Environment for High-Precision Printing
Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey needed a dedicated room with consistent humidity and temperature control to ensure reliable results from their specialized 3D powder ARCAM printing process. We were tasked with delivering a turnkey modular solution that could be built to precise specifications and integrated seamlessly into ongoing facility operations.
The Solution: Fully Equipped Modular Versa-King Room with Environmental Controls
Porta-King provided a 16’ x 30’ x 12’ tall four-wall modular enclosure using 3″ Versa-King panels finished in almond-colored fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) over drywall on both the interior and exterior. The durable finish supports easy maintenance and long-term performance in technical environments.
The room included:
- Steel roof decking and drop ceiling
- Integrated LED lighting
- Modular wiring system for quick and efficient electrical integration
- Ductless split HVAC system for humidity and temperature control
Porta-King worked closely with subcontractors to manage installation of the HVAC system, all electrical components and dedicated power feeds required for the ARCAM printing equipment—ensuring that every element met government and technical requirements.
