I have a coworker who has asked me the following question:

"As a function of the number of times that a part is handled is there any type
of model or tool that can be used to predict the amount of handling damage and
or contamination that would occur."

This would be for a typical factory environment and for equipment and
inspection operators, not in a clean room environment with lab coats, masks and
gloves.

Thanks.
