In the current electronic production industry that is strongly automated and highly accuracy-driven, static control is not only a measure of caution but a must. When dealing with sensitive PCBA parts in SMT and EMS production lines, handling and storage solutions can cause a direct influence on the yield of the product, its reliability, and general operational efficiency. Off of the shelf standard ESD trays are frequently not the solution to the special requirements of a particular production facility. Here customization is of critical importance. Our specialty at Shanghai Leenol Industrial Co., Ltd. is to design and produce customized solutions of ESD tray which can be directly integrated into the PCBA production workflow to the industrial level ESD tray to provide not only the protection of statical variation, but also the improvement of the workflow and provide the protection of the valuable assemblies.

The Critical Need for Customized Static Control Solutions
Each of the SMT/EMS production lines will have a footprint, automation interfaces, and process requirements. One size fits all ESD tray may result in inefficiency like a bad fit in conveyors, manual handling, lack of compartmentalization to accommodate the different board sizes or even physical damage during transportation. This gap is filled with customization. We establish a sympathetic connection between the product and the process by designing trays of the precise size of the PCBA, or by specifying the precise spacing of assembly line racks, or by designing gripping mechanisms of automated handlers. This is a customized solution that causes minimal movement inside the tray and avoids the possibility of abrasion or flexing as well as simplifies the process of getting out of one station and into the next without the risk of a general decrease in the quality of the electrostatic discharge shield during the whole process.

Our Collaborative Design and Engineering Process
We have created a culture of close partnering and rich engineering experience to build our customization service. This starts with a careful study of your unique needs. These are factors like the geometry of the PCBA, weight distribution, the location of sensitive components and the environmental conditions of the production and storage spaces. The next step is to use high-technology design tools and material science expertise with the view of recommending a solution. We are also working on producing trays that are functionally ideal, durable and ergonomically functional. Prototypes are created to be tested on a real-life scenario, where the design works perfectly in your real production environment before proceeding to large-scale production. This is a process that is iterative, and partnership based to ensure that the end product fits perfectly well in your application.

Assuring Long-Term Reliability and Performance.
An ESD tray that is custom made is an investment in the stability of production. Shanghai Leenol Industrial believes in providing a solution that will test the time and heavy industrial utilization. Our high-performance material is proven and provides consistent surface resistivity and durability resistant to cracking, warping and contamination. Our production processes provide accuracy and consistency of each tray that we make, batch after batch. Moreover, we look at the overall lifecycle, architecture to be stackable, cleanable and compatibility with standard industrial washing systems should there be a need. The outcome is a strong, dependable handling asset that not only secures your delicate electronics, but also simplifies your operations and lowers the overall ownership cost by eliminating the dangers of both handling errors and statical damages.
Conclusively, passive static control is no longer adequate in the high stakes world of industrial SMT/EMS PCBA manufacture. The combination of active and integrated approach by designing customized ESD tray design is the key to attaining high levels of protection and operational excellence. The Shanghai Leenol Industrial Co., Ltd. will be your exclusive partner in this venture. Our practical experience in the industry is blended with technical expertise to provide customer tailor-made tray solutions that will exactly be engineered to achieve your success. Protect your accuracy, streamline your processes and create a more dependable production line with a solution that is unique to you.
