Understanding the impact of ESD on product quality

In industrial and technical environments there are two types of ESD defects. The first is fatal failure that can usually be detected easily as early as during the assembly or handling phase, or at the latest, during the testing phase if it is conducted properly. Such products usually will not be shipped to the customer.

The other type of ESD defect is latent defect. This is difficult to detect as the product might pass all the tests and function normally for a while. But latent defects still impact the functionality and durability of the product and might even be one of the reasons for products of inferior quality.

Problems caused by static electricity often remain hidden and cannot be detected by the human eye. Within the electronics industry, ESD has been found to be one of the factors that reduce product reliability. Faulty products only become apparent over time. Therefore, maintaining an unbroken protective ESD chain is essential to product quality.

Incorporating ESD furniture into your workspace offers a multitude of benefits when it comes to enhancing the quality and reliability of your products.

The purpose of ESD furniture in mitigating ESD risks and preserving product quality

ESD furniture serves a crucial role in creating a controlled environment that minimizes electrostatic discharge. ESD furniture helps to dissipate static charges, preventing them from damaging sensitive electronic components. This practice significantly reduces the potential for costly ESD-related defects and improves overall product quality and reliability.

Carefully designed ESD workstations ensure that every step of your manufacturing process is conducted with utmost protection.

ESD furniture serves as a vital barrier against the potential damage caused by electrostatic discharge. By dissipating static charges safely, it creates a controlled environment that shields your sensitive electronic components from harm.
