In 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 necessary? What specific requirements apply to my company? And how do I classify my products correctly? This is exactly where our ESD consulting audit comes in.
At some point, many companies are faced with the question: "Do we need ESD protection measures at all?" The answer depends on whether you work with so-called ESDS - Electrostatic Discharge Sensitive Devices. These include many electronic components such as semiconductors, microchips, sensors or assemblies. Even discharges below the perception threshold can lead to latent damage or complete failure. The consequences: expensive returns, loss of image, safety risks.
Our ESD consulting audit begins where uncertainties exist:
Is there really an ESD risk in your company?
Which areas are affected - production, warehouse, incoming goods, dispatch?
Are measures already in place and are they sufficient or could they be improved?
Which standards (e.g. DIN EN IEC 61340-5-1) apply to you and where do you currently stand?
How can your processes be optimized to provide effective and standard-compliant protection?
Our experts analyze your current situation, assess risks and make clear, comprehensible proposals for implementation.
A common issue is identifying the relevant processes and areas affected. After all, not every product is the same and not all processes are identical. Decisions can be made by taking a targeted look at the processes and knowing the relevant standards:
With almost 30 years of experience in ESD practice and in-depth knowledge of standards, we offer a modular consulting audit that is tailored to your needs. Whether you are starting out or optimizing existing concepts. One thing is paramount: practical relevance. We do not provide empty recommendations, but accompany you during implementation - including documentation, training and, if desired, preparation for certification.
A professional ESD concept not only protects your products, but also your customer relationships and your reputation. Our ESD consulting audit provides you with the decision-making basis you need to act in a well-founded and standard-compliant manner.
