1. Introduction

In today's highly integrated electronic components, the quality of printed circuit boards (PCBs) as a bridge connecting electronic components directly affects the performance and stability of electronic equipment. However, static electricity, as a natural phenomenon that is difficult to avoid in the production process, often becomes an invisible culprit affecting the quality of PCB boards. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may not only damage components on PCB boards, but also cause circuit short circuits, signal interference and other problems, seriously affecting the reliability and service life of products. Therefore, it is very important to take effective electrostatic protection measures during the production process of PCB boards.

Hunan Yuehai Industrial Equipment Co., Ltd., as a company that has been deeply involved in the field of industrial equipment for many years, is well aware of the importance of anti-static workbenches in PCB board production. We are committed to providing customers with professional and efficient anti-static solutions to help PCB manufacturers effectively control the hazards of static electricity and improve product quality and production efficiency. This article will introduce in detail the technical principles of anti-static workbenches, their applications in PCB production, and Hunan Yuehai's development plans in 2024 and 2025, and how to better serve the PCB industry.

2. Technical principle of anti-static workbench

The anti-static workbench is a work platform designed for the electronics, semiconductor, optoelectronics and other industries. Its core is to effectively control and dissipate static electricity and protect sensitive components from damage by static electricity. Its technical principles mainly include the following aspects:

1. Static dissipative materials：
   Anti-static workbenches are usually made of static dissipative materials (such as anti-static desktops, anti-static mats, etc.). These materials have low surface resistivity and can quickly conduct away the generated static electricity to avoid static electricity accumulation.

2. Grounding System：
   The anti-static workbench is connected to the earth through a grounding wire, forming a complete static discharge path. When static electricity is generated on the surface of the workbench, it will be quickly introduced into the earth through the grounding wire, thus ensuring that the surface of the workbench remains at zero potential or close to zero potential.

3. Ion fan：
   Some advanced anti-static workbenches are also equipped with ion fans, which neutralize the static charge in the workbench and the surrounding air by blowing out air with positive and negative ions, further reducing the possibility of static electricity generation.

4. Static Electricity Monitoring and Alarm：
   Some advanced anti-static workbenches are also integrated with static electricity monitors, which can monitor the static electricity potential on the workbench surface in real time. Once the static electricity potential exceeds the safe range, an alarm will be issued to remind the operator to take timely measures.

3. Application of anti-static workbench in PCB production

In the production process of PCB boards, static electricity may be generated in every link, from raw material preparation, cutting, drilling, electroplating, mounting components to final testing and assembly. The application of anti-static workbench provides a full range of static protection for PCB production, which is specifically reflected in the following aspects:

1. Raw material handling：
   The raw materials of PCB boards, such as copper clad boards, solder mask inks, etc., are prone to static electricity during transportation and cutting. Using an anti-static workbench can effectively prevent static electricity from damaging the raw materials and ensure the quality of the raw materials.

2. Drilling and plating：
   During the drilling and electroplating process of PCB boards, static electricity is easily generated due to mechanical friction and chemical reactions. Anti-static workbenches can ensure that static electricity is discharged in time during these processes to avoid damage to PCB boards.

3. Component placement：
   SMD (surface mount device) is extremely sensitive to static electricity. Once it is subjected to static electricity shock, it may cause device damage or performance degradation. Using an anti-static workbench during component placement can ensure the safety of components during the placement process.

4. Testing and Assembly：
   PCB boards also need to be protected from electrostatic interference during testing and assembly. The anti-static workbench provides a stable electrostatic environment for the test equipment, ensuring the accuracy of the test results while protecting the components from electrostatic damage during the assembly process.

5. Employee Health and Safety：
   In addition to protecting PCB boards, anti-static workbenches also focus on the health and safety of employees. Working in an electrostatic environment for a long time may cause employees to feel uncomfortable, or even cause fires or explosions caused by electrostatic discharge. The use of anti-static workbenches effectively reduces such risks.
