Hey Mike- We ran into the same thing when we purchased a Large CanadianManufacturers repair business. We were creative and first used an ESD bag cut open (Simulate the paper idea) then we used a 3M parts bin and would tip it on its corner to funnel t

Anybody out there using these and having trouble getting them out of the tape? We currently are experiencing these parts being stuck in the tape. The carrier tape is mis-formed leaving a slight lip over the top of the component preventing our place
