PCB I-Type trays are storage and handling trays that are specially designed for the safe storage of printed circuit boards throughout the manufacturing process, assembly and transport. Commonly used in the SMT process to help organize and protect PCBs from physical damage and contamination. The ‘I-Type' design is the inside of the tray, which contains evenly-spaced slots for boards to hold securely in an upright position. This will avoid direct contact of PCBs and make it less likely to scratch, bend or damage the edge. The trays are usually made from durable, heat-resistant, and ESD-safe materials, making them suitable for use in sensitive electronic environments. The main benefit of the PCB I-Type trays is that they can be used in automatic handling systems. They can be neatly stacked and used in production lines, enhancing workflow efficiency and space-saving. They are also made of lightweight materials that provide durability, resulting in easy manual handling. These trays are effective at keeping PCBs clean and intact during the manufacturing process when used properly. Dust or residues are not allowed to have an impact on the boards being stored, thanks to regular inspection and cleaning. Overall, PCB I-Type trays provide a reliable and efficient solution for safe storage, handling, and movement of PCBs in electronics manufacturing environments.
