ESD PCB Turnover Rack: Anti-Static Board Storage & Transfer Tray by Southern Machinery

An ESD PCB turnover rack is an anti-static tray that carries PCBs through work-in-progress turnover — between printing, placement, soldering, inspection and packing — without letting static charge, edge contact or vibration reach the board. Southern Machinery supplies this L-shaped card-slot tray for EMS, automotive, medical and industrial lines.

Line integration

• Between printer, placement, reflow, wave soldering and AOI/AVI stations for WIP turnover
• In the warehouse, for static-safe storage of bare and assembled boards
• During transport, holding boards against vibration and collision

ROI and ESD risk reduction

• Prevents ESD damage that AOI cannot see — latent failures that surface weeks later
• Cuts rework and scrap caused by edge damage, rubbing and mix-ups
• Standardises WIP handling so operators move boards safely
• Low unit cost replaces improvised, non-conductive containers

FAQ

Is the tray safe for populated boards? Yes — it is designed for PCB circulation and temporary storage, keeping boards apart so components do not touch.

What surface resistance does it provide? Anti-static or conductive PP gives 10^6-9 ohm or 10^3-5 ohm, within the ESD-protective band for SMD components.

Will my PCB fit? The standard tray is 270 x 210 x 95 mm, with slots 4.6 mm deep and 3.3 mm wide at 6.2 mm pitch. Send us your board size and we will confirm.
