ESD Materials (Lab) Testing

ESD Materials (Lab)
Testing

Purpose built lab

Introduction

We have an independent and well-equipped laboratory in which our trained, iNARTE-certified technicians and engineers independently test, measure and evaluate static control (ESD) protective equipment and materials used to protect ESD-sensitive devices, including both raw materials and finished products.

Our lab features environmental chambers for the conditioning and testing of samples at the required temperature of 23°C and RH of 12% and 50%.

Benefits:

Independent 3rd party assessment
Development of test methodology / acceptance criteria/compliance verification plan
Problem identification and solution provision
Formal reports with recommendation
Conformance with industry recognised standards and protocols
Compliance with quality assurance guidelines within the facility
Facilitation of historical data compilation and trend analysis over time

Advantage:

Experience in a diversity of industrial sectors
Exemplary track record
All testing and studies supervised by qualified NEBB certified cleanroom testing supervisors
On-smiddle shop for performance testing and contamination studies
Comprehensive arsenal of equipment – both hardware and software
Trained technicians and engineers with relevant experience

Testing is done to internationally recognised ESDA, EIA or SEMI standards among others and commonly includes:

Surface and volume resistance testing and measurement per ESDA STM11.11 / 11.12
Energy measurement and evaluation of static shielding bags per ESDA STM11.31
Floor materials testing and measurement per ESDA S7.1
2 Point resistance measurement per ESDA STM11.13
Worksurfaces (ESD mats) resistance measurements per ESDA STM4.1
Gloves/finger cots testing per ESDA SP15.1 (within limits)

Following our analysis of the results, you will receive an easy-to-understand, formal reports with our recommendations.
