AlfaTech has designed multiple projects at Intel’s Santa Clara campus. In this ISO 3 & 4 cleanroom that cannot cease operation, AlfaTech has relocated the main employee gown room, provided new main exhaust system, designed LED lighting upgrade, designed a new building to house the central UPS system for the campus, added portable office space, retrofitted the original cleanroom, designed MEP and process piping for several new tools and numerous other upgrades and infrastructure expansion projects.

The Austin, TX, project included MEP services for the tenant improvement to approximately 225,000 SF of an existing manufacturing facility, to convert the space to contract manufacturing, assembly, and QA/QC testing of electronics products. The Milpitas, CA, project includes tenant improvements to an existing office space (approximately 3,500 SF) in building M9. The scope of work included removal of some existing interior walls and reconfiguration of spaces to provide open office, enclosed office, and conference spaces. The existing power and HVAC systems were reused and reconfigured to accommodate the new cubicle and office layouts. New lighting fixtures were used with the new ceiling grid and reflected ceiling plan.

Formerly National Semiconductor Corporation. AlfaTech provided engineering design services for a three-story office addition and manufacturing building and a million-gallon chilled-water storage system on a site with three existing buildings. Three existing 500-ton chillers, normally shut down overnight, are used to charge the three aboveground storage tanks. Stored chilled water provides the total chilled water needs for the building during the day. The storage tanks also serve as a secondary source of fire sprinkler water.

Type: Office, Clean Room, Manufacturing, Assembly, Testing Size: Over 1,000,000 SF Projects: Buildings B1, B2, B3, B6, B7, B8, B9, B11, B12, B14, B15, B20, B81, B100 As a prime contractor, AlfaTech has provided extensive tool hook-up design including; process/chemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering services. AlfaTech completed a major campus consolidation project in Buildings B2, 6, 11, 12, 81, & 100, which required the relocation of more than half the people in SCLA to consolidate and vacate Central & B108. Additionally the project required a clean-up of the Central campus site and buildings for sale. Installation of 200 mm and 300 mm high temperature film (epitaxial) CVD reactors, as well as for ion implantation prototype systems. In addition, AlfaTech performed a feasibility study for a 300 mm RTP lab that included process utility systems, toxic gas abatement and scrubbed exhaust and power distribution to the tools.

Type: Manufacturing, Assembly (Bangkok) + ISO 4 & 5 Class Clean Rooms (California) Size: Bangkok: ISO 4 Class Clean Rooms (80,000 SF), 160,000 SF total; California: 200,000 SF Seagate Technology manufactures disc drives, magnetic discs and read- write heads. All clean rooms in California were renovated to provide precise temperature and humidity controls. Renovation utilized existing mechanical equipment to provide heat recovery and conservation for the DX system. The firm also provides MEP design services in support of CSPM Lab Installations, Process Tool Renovations, and lab remodels. In Bangkok, AlfaTech provided engineering services for 40,000 SF of raised floor. The computer room was designed and constructed in four months to meet client’s schedule.
