Can WONE's Hygiene Station Accommodate 100 Workers?

When food plant managers evaluate hygiene equipment, one question comes up repeatedly: "Can a single hygiene station handle a full shift of workers without creating a bottleneck?" For facilities with 100 employees per shift, the answer depends on throughput capacity, peak traffic patterns, and equipment configuration.
Here, we are going to explore how WONE's hygiene cleaning stations—specifically the PBW-24B and PBW-25—perform under real-world conditions with 100 workers.

Understanding the Challenge: 100 Workers in Motion

Consider a typical food processing plant with 100 employees per shift. During shift change, workers arrive at the hygiene station within a 10-15 minute. Each employee needs to complete:
  • Hand washing
  • Hand drying
  • Hand disinfection
  • Boot scrubbing (and boot disinfection where required)
Any delay at this stage means late production starts, lost productivity, and frustrated workers. The hygiene station must process employees fast enough to clear the queue before production begins.

How WONE Hygiene Stations Handle 100 Workers

PBW-24B: Four Functions, One Pass

The PBW-24B personnel hygiene cleaning station integrates hand washing, hand drying, hand disinfection, and boot scrubbing in a single channel-through unit.
Throughput capacity:
Metric
PBW-24B Performance
Single pass time
20-30 seconds per person for a complete cycle
Peak throughput
120-180 persons per hour per unit
Start mode
Sensor-activated — walk in, machine starts automatically
Queue behavior
Continuous flow — multiple people pass through without stopping
For 100 workers: A single PBW-24B can process the entire shift in approximately 33-50 minutes at normal pace. During a peak 15-minute window (shift change), it handles roughly 30-45 workers — meaning two units side by side easily clear the full 100-person shift in under 15 minutes.

PBW-25: Smart Traffic Hygiene Station with 5 functions

Metric
PBW-25 Performance
Functions
Channel-type hand wash, hand dry, hand disinfection, boot scrub + boot disinfection
Power
2200W, sensor or facial recognition start
Dimensions
L3015×W1000×H1650mm — extended channel for complete process
Target throughput
120-180 persons per hour (comparable to PBW-24B with added identity verification)
The PBW-25's longer channel accommodates boot disinfection in addition to boot scrubbing — an important feature for facilities requiring higher biosecurity standards.

The Secret: Channel-Through Design Eliminates Queuing

Both PBW-24B and PBW-25 use a channel-through (pass-through) design. Employees walk through at a normal pace, and sensors automatically trigger each function.
This means:
  • No stopping at each station
  • No manual button pressing
  • No bottlenecks — the next person enters as the previous person exits

Sizing Guide: How Many Units for 100 Workers?

Based on the throughput data records from WONE's internal documentation, here is the recommended configuration for different scenarios:
Scenario
Recommended Configuration
Capacity
100 workers, single shift
1× PBW-24B or 1× PBW-25
Handles peak in ~30 min with single unit, ~15 min with two units
100 workers, overlapping shifts
2× PBW-24B (parallel)
Clear 100 workers in 10-15 min during overlapping peak
100 workers + boot disinfection required
2× PBW-25 (parallel)
Complete hygiene + disinfection for 100 workers in 20 min
100 workers,high hygiene standard (strict mode)
1× PBW-24B in strict mode
Strict mode adds verification time; recommend 2 units for peak
Therefore, WONE hygiene stations are fully capable of accommodating 100 workers. A single PBW-24B handles 120-180 persons per hour, meaning 100 workers can pass through in approximately 33-50 minutes. With two units in parallel, the entire shift clears in under 15 minutes — well within any shift change window.
The channel-through design, sensor-activated operation, and continuous cleaning logic eliminate queuing bottlenecks. Combined with i-clean data tracking for real-time traffic analysis, WONE's hygiene stations provide a proven, scalable solution for food plants of any size.
