Adiabatic & Isothermal Humidification for Electronics Manufacturing: The Science of Humidity Control in Manufacturing

Humidification is a key component of an effective ESD program and a process control system (a set of procedures designed to ensure that processes within a manufacturing plant are carried out correctly and that the desired output will be achieved) in an electronics manufacturing facility. Humidification assists in achieving company process control goals by providing another “tool” a company can use to manufacture products that meet company QA/QC standards while reducing costs associated with waste (scrap, rework, etc.) through a robust ESD regime that integrates humidification throughout the program. Secondary effects of providing humidification in electronics manufacturing are increased company ROI and bottom-line profitability. This paper provides a closer look at the interconnectedness of adiabatic humidification, improved process control and financial performance.
