We have a granite table out on our production floor. We use the table along with metal parallel bars and a height gauge to measure component height. Some of these boards have components on them that may be ESD sensitive. Does anyone have experience w

If you decide on an epoxy floor, make sure you use a contractor that is experienced with installing ESD epoxy floors. The epoxy needs to be continuously mixed to keep the media consistent throughout. We had a contractor who failed to do that, and wh

Can you use your field meter to measure the level of charge on your boards?

So, someone walks into the work area from outside [or where ever]. Presumably, there is a measurable charge on their hair. After they sit at his / her work station and strapup, is there still a charge on their hair? ... I don't know, but it wouldn't

Latex is not a conductor. It's an insulator. So, it will not conduct a charge to the metal wire rack. You can test this hypothesis by charging a latex tube in the shop and measuring its conductivity to ground. We believe that you should not have

I think what Russ is getting at is that the granite table is used for it's flat surface to aid in measurement, the flat surface helps to measure heights very accuratly. If you add another surface on top of that then you lose what the granite surface
