Internal Handling Trays
EMS – Internal Handling Trays
Thermopack designs and manufactures precision internal handling trays for the EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Services) industry. These trays are developed for safe, organized, and ESD-protected handling of electronic components and printed circuit boards during production, assembly, testing, and internal transport.Our EMS tray solutions help reduce handling damage, improve process flow, and support automation compatibility across electronics manufacturing environments.
EMS Internal Handling Trays for Safe Electronics Manufacturing
Thermopack internal handling trays are engineered specifically for electronics manufacturing environments where component safety and electrostatic control are critical. These trays support structured placement and secure movement of PCBs and electronic assemblies throughout production stages.
Designed for repeatable multi-cycle use, our trays help maintain product integrity while improving handling efficiency on shop floors and automated lines.
They are suitable for manual handling, conveyor movement, and automated assembly workflows.
TSAT Trays for Transport, Storage and Automation
TSAT (Transport, Storage, and Automation) trays are designed to support secure movement and staging of PCBs and electronic assemblies across manufacturing and testing processes. These trays are built to minimize both mechanical stress and electrostatic discharge risk.
TSAT trays are widely used where automation compatibility and dimensional standardization are required.
Key characteristics include:
Designed for transport and staging cycles
ESD-safe material construction
Ergonomic handling structure
Automation-friendly dimensions
Multi-size PCB accommodation
Stable pocket positioning
Reduced handling error risk
They help maintain consistent part flow through automated systems.
Custom PCB Handling Trays for EMS Operations
Thermopack PCB trays are developed for safe storage and handling of printed circuit boards and assembled modules. Tray designs are customized to match PCB dimensions, connector layouts, and support points.
These trays protect boards from bending, surface contact, and contamination during production and shipment.
PCB tray design options include:
Custom cavity layout per board size
ESD-safe plastic grades
Stackable tray formats
Board support ribs and pockets
Clean handling surface design
Automation and test-line compatibility
Warehouse-friendly stacking profiles
They improve board safety across handling stages.
Controlled ESD Protection for Sensitive Components
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) control is critical in electronics manufacturing. Thermopack EMS trays are produced using conductive or dissipative materials designed to maintain safe electrostatic resistance levels.
Defined ESD value ranges ensure trays are suitable for handling sensitive electronic assemblies without risk of static-related damage.
ESD protection aspects include:
Controlled surface resistance ranges
Conductive or dissipative material options
Tested ESD performance values
Safe handling resistance levels
Reduced static charge buildup
Protection for sensitive PCBs and components
Support for ESD-safe work zones
Our trays are developed to align with recognized ESD handling practices.
