Baking & Dry Packing

Moisture control has always been an extremely important issue with Surface Mount Devices. However, with the evolution to No-Lead the issues are more pronounced. Mid America can bake your parts and Dry Pack them for you with a humidity indicator card and desiccant.

 

What is Baking?

Baking is a process in which a material is heated in order to change its properties. This can be done for various reasons, such as to improve its strength or durability, to remove moisture or solvents, or to cure a coating or adhesive. Baking is often used in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and automotive, where high-performance materials and components are required.

What is Dry Packing?

Dry packing, on the other hand, is a process in which a product is packaged in a dry environment in order to protect it from moisture and other environmental factors. This is often done with sensitive products such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, and food items. The dry packing process typically involves removing air and moisture from the packaging material, then sealing the product in a moisture-free environment. This can be done using a variety of techniques, such as vacuum sealing or using desiccants to absorb moisture.

How can Baking and Dry Packing both be used?

In some cases, baking and dry packing may be used together. For example, a material may be baked to remove moisture before it is packaged in a dry environment. This can help to ensure that the material remains stable and does not degrade during storage or transport.

Overall

Baking and dry packing are important processes in manufacturing that help to improve the quality and durability of products, as well as protect them from environmental factors that could cause damage or deterioration.
