New Supplier of Dry Cabinets Introduced to European Electronics Industry

Las Vegas NV August 7, 2008 —XDry Inc, a manufacturer of humidity controlled products with offices in Las Vegas, Montreal and Asia, introduced a complete line of dry cabinet storage systems at SMT-Nuremberg in June. XDry offers dry cabinets in various standard styles and sizes from 5 to 50 cubic feet of storage space, with an effective operating range from 0.5% to 50% RH, designed to satisfy virtually every moisture control requirement.

"Production equipment companies are very successful at identifying, and preventing many of the assembly based defects. Yet engineers tend to forget about the most obvious ways of reducing these defects - controlling the climate in which parts and boards are stored," said Kevin McCarten, XDry CEO. "Dry cabinets provide a consistent environment within a specific relative humidity removing moisture from components and boards. Removing moisture prevents stretch and shrink of board dimensions allowing for more accurate placements, and prevents explosive water out-gassing during the reflow process."

Preserving dimensional stability in PCBs and component micro-cracking during reflow helps improve quality by adding a cost-effective level of environmental control to the raw materials used in building electronic assemblies.

Effective moisture and humidity control prevents damage from degradation, decay and decomposition of historical and everyday items for the electronics, machine vision, laboratories, digital media, optics and a wide variety of industrial applications.
