In the industrial sector, and more specifically in the electronics sector, the prevention of risks linked to electrostatic discharges is crucial. ESD, or ElectroStatic Discharge, refers to the sudden and momentary circulation of electricity between two objects of different electrical potential. This discharge can result in serious damage to electronic components, leading to malfunctions or total failure of electronic equipment.
In this context, the working environment in electronic industries and EPA (ESD Protected Area) zones must be controlled to avoid any build-up of static electricity. This means using materials and tools specially designed to prevent electrostatic discharges. This is precisely the context in which Mure & Peyrot’s ESD safety knives have a crucial function.
A new range of ESD knives: AJONC and BAZAS
We are proud to present our new range of ESD knives, including our two models of AJONC and BAZAS cutters.
Specially designed to satisfy the requirements of handling work in EPA zones, our ESD knives are the perfect tool for cutting, opening or any other handling task without any damage to electronic components.
Anti-static tools against human risks :
In EPA zones, static electricity represents a significant risk both in material and human terms. Electrostatic discharges can result in accidents in the workplace in certain dangerous situations.
One of the main advantages of our ESD knives is their ability to remove any risk of electrostatic discharge when they come into contact with electronic components. Electrostatic discharges generate sometimes frequent electric shocks, exposing operators to potential dangers.
Thanks to their specific raw materials, the knives have conductive properties, effectively removing static electricity. This feature not only protects the electronic components from damage, but also ensures user safety by considerably reducing the risk of electric shock. Moreover, their design minimises the risk of serious burns, providing an extra layer of protection for operators working in these sensitive environments.
These tools are a perfect solution to the human dangers caused by electrostatic discharges, and demonstrate their relevance and undeniable usefulness.
ESD: Preservation of electronic materials and components:
The benefits of ESD knives are not limited to human safety, but also extend to the preservation of materials and electronic components, where the control of static electricity is of crucial importance. Mure & Peyrot ESD knives work by preventing the excessive build-up of electrostatic charges that could potentially cause dangerous situations or damage to electronic components.
By preventing electrostatic overcharge, Mure & Peyrot ESD knives help to preserve the materials and components essential to the integrity of electronic equipment. In this way, these tools guarantee the durability of electronic materials and components in EPA environments.
ESD compliance :
Our ESD knives meet the strict requirements of EN 61340-5-1, guaranteeing an electrical resistance of less than or equal to 10^9 ohms (≤ 109 Ω).
This compliance not only guarantees reliable performance in dissipating static electricity, but also provides additional assurance of reliability and safety in sensitive environments.
Human safety at the centre of the electronics industry:
In top of their efficiency as ESD tools, our knives are designed with user safety as an absolute priority. They are designed to reduce the risk of cuts, which is essential in a working environment where concentration and precision are paramount.
Finally, Mure & Peyrot’s range of ESD knives represents a significant advance in tools for the electronics industry. ESD safety knives from Mure & Peyrot are proving to be indispensable partners, offering essential protection against the material and human risks associated with electrostatic discharges. By offering a safe and effective solution for handling electronic components, we are helping to improve working conditions and prevent industrial accidents.
