Summary


Humidification is a key component of an effective ESD program and a process control system (a set of procedures designed to ensure that processes within a manufacturing plant are carried out correctly and that the desired output will be achieved) in an electronics manufacturing facility. Humidification assists in achieving company process control goals by providing another “tool” a company can use to manufacture products that meet company QA/QC standards while reducing costs associated with waste (scrap, rework, etc.) through a robust ESD regime that integrates humidification throughout the program.

Secondary effects of providing humidification in electronics manufacturing are increased company ROI and bottom line profitability. This paper provides a closer look at the interconnectedness of adiabatic humidification, improved process control and financial performance.

Conclusions


In this paper, the need for including humidification into a well-rounded electronics manufacturing facilities’ ESD program, waste and costs attributed to ESD occurrences, adiabatic and isothermal humidification technology, and energy savings and rebates available to a facility for using energy savings technology (adiabatic humidification) are reviewed. Multiple areas that contribute to waste from ESD occurrences and facility energy savings costs and rebates were studied. The most under looked component of humidification, energy savings, and its effect on ROI and company bottom line profitability were presented.
