Control of Foreign Object Debris (FOD)
Safeguarding Precision: Defending Against Foreign Object Damage (FOD)
In electronic manufacturing, precision and accuracy are paramount, making even the smallest foreign objects a potential threat to electronic components. Our consultancy recognises the critical importance of controlling contamination and Foreign Object Debris (FOD) helping you ensure the reliability and safety of electronic components throughout their lifecycle.
To mitigate the risks of foreign object damage
Marq-One will guide your team on best practices in the following:
Transportation and Storage
Utilising pallets or carriers for transportation, minimising exposure time outside protective casings to prevent contamination. Secure storage reduces the risk of electrostatic damage.
Quality Control
Implement quality control measures, such as optical imaging, to identify foreign objects at crucial stages of manufacturing.
Workstation Cleanliness
Maintain clean and tidy workstations, avoiding the consumption of food or drinks. Remove any debris that could potentially find its way onto electronic boards.
Understanding Foreign Object Damage
Foreign objects encompass particles like dust, fibres, food, hair, and metallic debris such as solder balls or brush bristles. These intruders can appear at any stage of the manufacturing process, testing, or packaging, posing immediate or gradual damage risks.
Foreign objects can cause a range of issues, including electrical malfunctions, reliability and lifespan concerns, and safety risks. The consequences extend to potential short circuits, power fluctuations, complete failures, and safety hazards in critical applications like aircraft and vehicles.
Minimising risk and maximising your reputation
Foreign object damage poses a real threat to the quality, reliability, and safety of electronic components.
By adhering to basic cleanliness practices and implementing specific measures, we will help your employees understand the nature of foreign objects, their potential consequences, and the process for identifying and resolving incidents.
You will in turn minimise the risks of failures and recalls, safeguard your reputation and ensure the longevity and functionality of electronic components.
