Which Electronic Industry Processes Will Produce Static Hazards?

Electronic components from the production to use the entire process will produce static electricity, which can be divided into the following categories:

1. Electronic component manufacturing process

?The process includes fabrication, cutting, wiring, inspection to delivery.

?

2. Printed circuit board manufacturing process

?Receiving, acceptance, storage, insertion, soldering, quality control, packaging and shipment.

?

3. Equipment Manufacturing Process

?Circuit board acceptance, storage, assembly, quality control and shipment.

?

4. Equipment use process

?Receiving, installation, testing, use and maintenance.

?

5. Equipment Maintenance Process

?Throughout this entire process, every small step at every stage has the potential to expose components to the effects of static electricity.

In fact, one of the most important and overlooked aspects of the process is the transfer and transportation of the components. During this whole process, not only is the package prone to static electricity due to movement, but also the whole package is easily exposed to external electric fields (e.g., passing near high-voltage equipment, frequent movement of workers, rapid movement of vehicles, etc.), so special attention is needed during transportation and handling to minimize losses and avoid unnecessary disputes.

?As a result, electrostatic damage can occur at any stage from the manufacture of electronic components to their use and maintenance.

?The damage caused by static electricity to electronic products is similar to the damage caused by cancer to the human body. It is no exaggeration to say that static electricity has become an invisible fatal killer in the electronics industry.
