arzucom, have you considered using trays to handle your boards in process and your handbuilds. This method is fast becoming the industry standard method for a large variety of reasons, specifically ESD as when the boards are in the tray your people

I worked for a place that built flight boxes for the military and some comercial. As Russ stated, wrist straps were used where they could be used. In areas where they were in the way, i.e. room where they masked and sprayed the boards, they had the

LarryP, ESD smocks in combination with a wrist strap provide a path to ground for any charge potential. An operator wearing a smock while grounded will provide a path to ground for the chair. With an ESD chair you can have antistatic or static

You are correct. The resistors are for personal safety. However, I don't think that bench top or floor mats require a 1MO current-limiting resistor. This would be necessary if a wrist strap was being used. The mats we use do have a 1MO resistor o

| ok, ok, so I'm not an engineer. I'm a salesguy ( and that's nothing to be ashamed of...) Here's my dilemma. I represent a contract manufacturer who is in the early stages of quoting on "turnkey" assembling of a circuit board for a manufacturer

This may have been asked, but what ESD protection does your facility already have? With proper techniques and equipment, this should be a non-issue. As long as folks aren't using the pcb's to comb through their hair, you don't have to worry about i

A company I used to work for did not use wrist straps in some areas for the same reason. We had a conductive floor (not dissipative wax) and ESD shoes and heel straps that we tested three times a day. If you can ensure that feet are always on the fl

Thank you for these thoughts, So Concreate floors, ESD wax, heal and wrist straps, in applicabe locations, grounded ESD mats at work stations, and smurf outfits. should do it ? 10 the the 6th 10M 10 to the 7th 100M big differance what is the target

Stephen, This link was also in my earlier post. "The wrist strap cord has a current-limiting resistor for personnel safety." http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/pkginfo/Ch_06.pdf

They just make it look good, that's all. ESD flooring, heals straps and wrist bands have function, smocks do not.
