Conductive Transport Box
Conductive Transport Box RTP Company End-Use Case Study Carbon fiber reinforced ABS reduces cost Protects sensitive electronics from electrostatic charges Low outgassing compound prevents corrosion A carbon fiber reinforced ABS material compounded by RTP Company provides conductive properties needed for a new substrate carrier box. The box, patented under the name Conductive Transport Enclosure, is made by Avantek Inc., a Santa Clara, California manufacturer of microwave semiconductors, amplifiers, oscillators and other electronic components. Elimination of potential damage to sensitive circuits from electrostatic charges during manufacturing phases was achieved when using a carbon fiber filled ABS compound, ESD C 680. This material was selected because of its easy flow and reduced wear on
