Static Electricity Control System

Static electricity creates huge problems in many areas of industry. Static damage can occur in the manufacture, handling and application of sensitive semiconductor devices and static discharges can disrupt operation of microelectronic systems. Shock risks to personnel can arise in the plastics, paper and packaging industries and in handling powders. To control electrostatic discharges, affecting microelectronic systems is to mount the equipment within an enclosure providing good electrostatic and magnetic shielding. To control static electric shock industries used anti-shock coatings process like epoxy coating, polyurethane coating, waterborne coating etc. Air ionizers and radioactive neutralizers often used in flammable atmospheres with precautions to prevent risk of sparking if highly charged webs can move to touch earthed surfaces.
