Hover Davis is a good suggestion and they make outstanding feeders. Try EIA-481 for standards for tape sizes versus component sizes. This is pretty much the industry standard.

I have run across reference to EIA-481 for specifications on Tape And Reel components for automatic placement and am looking for something similar that specifies standards or dimensions for IC Tubes or sticks. I am trying to make the vibatory feeder

EIA-481 standard allows the maximum pitch on tape to be 4mm less than the tape width (12mm width and larger). So it is within the standard allowances. As for how common 20mm pitch on 24mm tape is I can not say. I am surprised a 24mm tape feeder ca

EIA-481-B Max tape thickness 1.1mm (not including bottom and top cover tapes which can be .1mm max each) Of course a 1.1mm thick piece of steel will be stiffer than a 1.1mm thick lasagna noodle (already cooked). Is the thickness the issue or is it t
