Optimise your esd workplace with messung
ESD or electrostatic discharge is a common phenomenon. Furniture, equipment, clothing and other common items canstore and release electrostatic discharge.
If you're working with sensitive electronic components and assemblies, ESD protection is vital. Uncontrolled ESD can visibly damage electronic components, interfere with their function or lead to operational failure later on.
Usually, companies build EPAs (electrostatic protected areas) which provide effective protection against damage caused byESD. Proper ESD control is about ensuring the right combination of tools, clothing, working environments, staff training, and user behaviour is deployed effectively.
In EPAs, all precautionary measures are taken so people can work on electro statically-sensitive assemblies without risk of damage.
HOW MESSUNG CAN HELP
Setting up an ESD workplace requires personal grounding apparel and items such as wrist straps, lab coats, gloves, etc. It also calls for ESD flooring and ESD furniture, ESD packaging & storage, besides tape and signage to distinguish the space from other areas.
ESD workstations and other furniture are crucial elements of an ESD workplace - and that's where Messung Workplace Technology presents an undeniable advantage.
ESD Workbenches
Messung manufactures world-class ESD workstations or ESD workbenches in both aluminium and mild steel, to meet the minimum requirements of IEC 61340-5-1. The ESD tables are modular and ergonomically adaptable. The lab table top with volumetric ESD ensures electrostatic charge is dissipated across the working area. To further keep the table charge-neutral, there is a grounding cable and all plastic parts are not ESD conductive.
Some of the features of Messung's AFM-PLUS workstations include:
- Sleek electrical mounting panel: Our industrial work table has a sleek mounting panel equipped with high standard universal power sockets (5/15 Amp) and with standard MCB of 2 pole/32 Amp.
- Ergonomic rack for hanging trays to hold cables, special tools, inspection equipment, etc.
- Sturdy Worktop: The worktop is a tough high pressure laminated particle board with ABS 2mm edge binding. It has 200 Kg weight carrying capacity and is Formaldehyde Emission – Class E1 (normally inflammable) as per EN 438.
- Perforated panel: Well-designed perforated panel for easy mounting of electronic assemblies.
- Provision for accessories: Messung's aluminium ESD table has provisions to fit magnifying glass, monitor arm, keyboard tray, bottle holder.
- Footrest: Adjustable ESD footrest for working comfort.
