Taping, Packaging, Storaging

Processing the components in tape&reel is a standard in most production areas. For this we offer a professional reeling or de-reeling service according the EIA-481-C standard. Using fully automated pick&place systems the parts will be re-packed from tube or tray into the corresponding tape. The programming, marking and taping processes are completely integrated to avoid any mechanical stress on the components.

We have the facility to moisture bake and repackage devices in accordance with the JEDEC J-STD-033B standard. We can bake and dry-pack any electronic devices as required. Moisture retention in the package can still cause excessive mechanical stresses during the soldering process, causing cracks and delaminating. In some cases when this damage affects critical areas, long term reliability may be compromised. It is necessary to control the moisture content in the encapsulation, up to the moment that they are submitted to the soldering process.

This control is obtained by shipping and storing sensitive SMD’s in moisture barrier bags. They are hermetically sealed and can control the moisture absorption from the ambient environment, thus maintaining the devices in a dry condition until used.

A special Dry-Pack method is applied for long time device storing. For this the dried devices are packaged in extremely tough and durable bags. Before vacuum sealing, the bag needs to be flushed out with nitrogen to prevent any component corrosion.
