If the operator has zero charge and the board has a 10kv charge, when the operator pulls the shorting strip from the edge connector after the coating has cured, there is a large potential for ESD induced damage.

We are planning out an expansion project. Currently we have vinyl esd tile in our production area. We've found this to be expensive, easy to damage, and a pain to repair. Has anyone had any experience with ESD floor coatings/paints??? Any advice

Assemblies are stored on ESD rubber covered flat trays. The trays are stored on rolling carts with slots for the trays (Bliss cart). The damage usually occurs on the bottomside (passives only). This side is more susceptible to damage because the sm

Hi Russ, We had a painted/waxed floor in one factory & a ESD tiled floor in the other. Both passed every audit (including telecoms & Japanese OEM's)that tested ESD etc. Neither factory had issues with ESD damage to components either. The tiled f

In the past, black poly was used as a bridge between pink poly and shield bags because of slightly lower cost and offering some shielding as opposed to none with pink poly. However, as the price of shield bags continue to drop the usage of black poly

We use both the black conductive and blue static dissipative ESD totes in the production of Class 3 military electronic assemblies. In some cases we use ESD bags, but most board assemblies are placed directly in an ESD tote with a lid. The totes cont

I'm not saying that any unexplained failure is caused by ESD and I certainly am not promoting fear. I sleep very well at night (except after eating Mexican food, which can cause discharges as well). What I am saying is that ESD is a real threat and

First, we're not real concerned about gluing induced ESD damage, but conformal coating has a tremendous potential to damage sensitive components. We found a charge of 12 kV generated during the aerosol spraying. Second, ESD-stuff IS very confusing.
