In electronics production, cleanliness, protection, and precision determine product quality – especially in the manufacturing of sensitive components such as circuit boards, chips, sensors, connectors, or assemblies. The ZELL part carriers and cleaning baskets are specifically designed for these requirements: They offer ESD protection, cleanroom compatibility, and support standardized, automated processes in electronics manufacturing.
Electrostatic discharges (ESD) are among the most common causes of damage to electronic components. ZELL offers ESD-compatible carrier systems with a defined discharge resistance – to protect sensitive electronics from goods receipt to final assembly. The corresponding data sheet for ESD materials is available in the download area.
Many electronic products require production under cleanroom conditions. ZELL workpiece carriers are made from cleanroom-compatible materials, are easy to clean and produce no disruptive particles. Ideal for optoelectronic, medical technology or safety-critical applications.
Whether after milling, soldering or potting – electronic components often need to be cleaned without damaging sensitive structures. ZELL cleaning baskets enable residue-free fine cleaning using ultrasound or aqueous systems and ensure exact fixation even for miniature components.
ZELL Part Carrier systems are compatible with robot handling, pick-and-place systems, and automated lines. On request, they can be equipped with RFID, laser marking, or DMC – for seamless traceability of your assemblies.
All part carriers are modular, durable and 100% recyclable. This reduces packaging waste, lowers logistics costs and improves your sustainability balance – an increasingly important issue in the electronics industry.
Many leading companies in electronics manufacturing – from the automotive industry to medical technology – already rely on customized carrier systems from ZELL to protect, standardize, and streamline their processes.

Depending on the application, we recommend starting with our "Factory" workpiece carriers, as these can be configured both as inserts for Euro containers and as standalone functional carriers. More demanding applications are better suited to our reinforced "Carrier" or "Stainless Steel" carriers.
Yes, all carriers are washable. Samples can be provided for specific critical process parameters.
Yes, all workpiece carriers are compatible with automation systems, form a defined matrix, and can therefore be configured for robotic use. Components are arranged in such a way that grippers can be positioned accordingly. Because the carriers are designed to be cleanable, they are slightly heavier; therefore, their weight and center of gravity must be taken into account when handling the entire carrier.
Our plastic carriers operate reliably over extended periods at temperatures of approximately 60–70°C, and in some cases even at significantly higher temperatures during short cycles. Our stainless steel carriers—particularly the GRID carriers—can be used in furnaces at temperatures up to 1,200°C. For additional specifications, please refer to our material data sheets.
Yes, all plastic components can be manufactured with an antistatic additive. See also the data sheet in the Downloads section.
Yes, ZELL can custom-manufacture component holders, as well as entire workpiece carriers or inlays for containers, as a single injection-molded component. We typically start by reviewing the more than 1,300 available variants using our ZELL configurator; if no satisfactory solution is found there, customers can work with our engineering team to develop a “new clip.” These can be tested in 3D and as prototypes before the corresponding injection mold is manufactured.
