The pressure sensitive tape is used as an alternative to heat sealed cover tape. It works usually quite well and is easily applied by the taping machine, but it can create some problems in the tape feeder. In the Surftape, Cal is referring to, the c

Hi Rob, We encountered it on a 6x6mm device, hence, we could consider it as fine pitch. I suppose that it may also have something to do with improvements in the speed of the feeders. Honestly, we don't have that visibility bec our customers do not

I have recently purchased a Tape and reel machine from V-Tech. We are using Presure Sensitive tape and we are not geting good results. Anything bigger that a SOIC14/16 gives us trouble. The cover tape will pull off on the feeder and we will lose part

Hi Liza, We tend to see it on the larger plastic tape sizes & lower volume parts - such as smd connectors, fine pitch reeled IC's, BGA's etc. We don't tend to get it on high vol parts such as logic, 8 & 16bit micros, v-regs etc. Could this be du

We have seen this problem, again using the methods recommended by Siemens. We tried different methods of splicing the tapes, but again the material was clogging in the feeders and especially in the cogs which grip and feed the tape. The only method

Hi Dougie I'd still look at the feeder. Have you tried loading this part in another feeder? We also use tons of this part and, in the last 6 months or so, they have all come in embossed plastic tape with no problems like yours. These are by Kemet.

We are using these Cover tape extenders https://smtsupplies.com/products/cover-tape-extenders-8-12mm-yellow-500-per-box The problem we have is that we have on 8mm feeders is that these leaders are harder plastic, and we have to put fishing weights o
