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

Hi Liza, several years ago we had problem like that only with Carrier Tape made by Ploycarbonate material and by using High Speed pick & place. Very few pbms met by using low speed P&P machine. Problems have been solved by using Polystirene Carri

I don't know Juki but I know stick feeding SO8 ICs. If you have a lot of them regularly then consider getting a tape and reel machine.

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.

According to inquiries of splicing tape, it is been done at many places. I do agree that the feeder fouls badly, if the splice brakes. How much longer does it take to fix the problem with a broken splice? How quickly can you change a feeder/tape with

The root cause of your problem is your placement equipment. It is not designed for continuous production during component replenishment. Feeders that can be removed, reloaded, and placed back on the machine while the machine is running (without mis
