In many companies, ESD protection is a natural part of manufacturing. It is tested, documented, and there are guidelines. And yet the risk is often underestimated. But why? Because ESD damage is rarely spectacular.

 

What does ESD damage really cost?
An electrostatic[...]

This year, we are once again kicking off our KEINATH calibration weeks. Make a note of the following dates now: 09.03. – 20.03.2026

When we started with modal fiber in ESD clothing, we really shook up the market!Today, we are proud of what this idea has become and continue to work on making ESD protective clothing even better.&nbsp We were the first to[...]

How our ESD measuring and testing technology came aboutWhat do you do when high-tech factories build state-of-the-art electronics, but the ESD measuring devices on the test bench still look like they're from the 90s?

We at KEINATH Electronic didn't just ask[...]

A strong event - and a strong world first from KEINATH

On May 21, 2025, it was time again for ESD Network Live to open its doors. This year at Pepperl+Fuchs in Mannheim. As organizers, we are very pleased about the[...]

Why it's worth it &ampIn electronics production, ESD protection is not a nice-to-have, but essential. This is because electrostatic discharges (ESD for short) are invisible but destructive risks for sensitive electronic components. But when is an ESD protection system really[...]
