we have an operator who is being prescribed to wear a bone growth stimulation system. Does anyone know if tis is ESD safe? Can he wear that on the production floor as long as he's grounded and have it stored inside his smock?

Use a field meter to quantify the effect of having this bone growth stimulation equipment near ESD sensitive devices.

It must be at least a little more ESD safe than a polyester sweater. And I'm sure at least at sometime someone has worn some clothing made of plastic fibers at your place. basically find the worst thing you allow, (probably polyester sweaters) and

Jon: What stimulated this? It's okay to pick on Earl, but explain who is placing .008" pitch. Sounds like the olde hybrid guys? Always looking for cheap equipment to do hi-rel production. Wayne

the guy has a borken collarbone, and this "promotes healing by inducing a weak electrical current at the fracture site." The distributor says it's ok. I kind of wonder if it really is.

Without getting into an electrical field promoting bone growth... As long as he is grounded through heal straps and/or wrist straps, it should be fine. Although I imagine being grounded would neutralize the "Bone Grower"

HALT is an approach to stimulate a failure till its existence. It is mainly used during product design and development phase. Traditional tests are mainly used to prove "no" failure but HALT is to make failure for information to improve in design of

Thanks Dave... To all that took offence I do apologise, its a fine line that i'm walking here. Accelerated life testing is an integral part of todays development and manufacturing environment. I've spent 3 years living with 50% of my time in a desi

Hello all, We are using z1850/60 machines. The APC test is damaging a 1.8V device on the board. The APC stimulates -/+3Vdc in fast mode. I understand the dangers of over-voltage. But what I need to know is how the part is being damaged when the ent
