Q1: How do PE-S pads differ from standard vacuum pads?
A: PE-S combines anti-deformation with ESD control: tailored support prevents warping of ultra-thin media, while the conductive rubber provides coating-free static dissipation.
Q2: What processes and parts are they designed for?
A: Copper foil, electronic films, FPC, and semiconductor packaging carriers—stations that demand planarity and ESD control (pre/post lamination, singulation, inspection transfer).
Q3: Do they require an additional anti-static coating?
A: No. Conductivity is built into the compound, avoiding performance drift associated with coatings.
Q4: Any recommendations before deployment?
A: Run on-tool trials to validate holding force, tension paths, and release rebound; for ultra-thin media, tune vacuum orifice and blow-off timing.
Q5: Are they compatible with ionizers?
A: Yes. Using ionizing blowers/bars further accelerates charge neutralization and helps reduce debris attraction.
