A method and apparatus for packaging sensitive electronic components includes a tray having an outer wall with an inside surface which at least partially defines a protected space; releasable retention bars releasably retaining the components in the protected space. The tray and retention bar are preferably fabricated from an electrically conductive material, so that the assembly may be grounded during transport and handling. The method of packaging and transporting includes providing the container, placing at least one component in the protected space, placing the retention bar over the component to retain it in the protected space, engaging the ends of the bars with the container to capture the component between the bar and the inside surface of the tray, and transporting the tray with captured components to a desired location, during which time the assembly is protected against damage during handling. |
