In my experience tape is bad when packaging trays. I've always seen them packaged with the banded straps when coming from manufactures or brokers. For repackaging we either use ESD safe rubber bands or ESD safe velcro straps.

We are a manufacturer of placement machines and I believe that you asked if there was a reference that can be used to determine the tape sizes for most SMD packages. We review the catalogs from Practical Components and Top Line to determine tape size

I have never used Jedec trays before, what type of tape do you use to keep them together once stacked for packaging? Thanks all

Does anyone know of a handy dandy reference guide showing what the standard feeder tape size is for most common SMD packages? Just trying to figure out what the capacity REALLY is of all these pick and place machines I'm looking at, that state capaci

Was wondering if anyone has a general chart matching SMT package size with tape feeder size. E.g 0602: 8mm Tape 2mm pitch. Cheers.

Oddly enough, I find it more often than not that the supply type is not mentioned in the data sheets. And if the original author was saying 0603 in a metric package, then it would be in 8x2 tape. Even in the US, some companies use the metric names

Genny, you may want to look at the brds you will be running and identify the various packages. I do not know what a standard package is. Most chip resistor and capacitors, 0402, 0603, 1206, 1210's are on 8mm feeders, but ic's vary quite a bit. Also r

Hi, most common parts were mentioned already. For all the rest you will have the simple counting we all do. Distanse between two holes in the tape is 4mm. You dont need special software for that. packages for passive parts you will learn fast.

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
