Inovaxe Intros MSD-specific Storage
October 15, 2007 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
SARASOTA, Fla. Inovaxe Corp. debuted the INOCART-MSD handling solution for component traceability and moisture-sensitive device management. The tooling includes a tracking and timing software program that monitors MSDs in the factory and alerts users to components in danger of moisture-related problems.
The system features an individual-cell design, which holds multiple reel sizes and waffle trays in low humidity levels. Cells disengage from a central "hive," allowing environmental control in all other cells, eliminating exposure to factory-ambient conditions. Configurations of 66 or 33 cells are available. Multiple forced-convection desiccant-drying modules aid in moisture prevention. Inovaxe designed the storage system for MSD levels 2, 2a, 3, 4, 5, and 5a.
The MSD-tracking software measures a component's "remaining floor life" from the time it leaves storage and enters factory conditions. Moisture sensitivity is determined against the component's J-STD-033A specification. The software also monitors components returned to "safe storage" off the facility floor. An MSD Dashboard displays condition/status of each package for MSD level and status, percentage and hours of remaining floor life, quantity and location of parts, and MSD status flags.
