Understand that one..but the main issues is..do i really need to use ESD tape or non-ESD tape..since as we all know kapton tape is already expensive..if ESD kapton tape required in SMT line..the cost will be more higher.

You have to make sure the tape is covering the holes, this is where the sensor reads the tape.

If you want to tinker a bit with old machines, you could buy an inexpensive ( under $ 10,000 ) used Pick&Place machine and reverse the polarity on the tape feeding motor. If you don't heat seal the cover tape, but use pressure sensitive cover tape,

The Tesa company delivers Splice Tape for 8mm, 12mm and 16mm. Also special splice tape for 8mm paper tape and some splice tools as well. Siemens uses for large tape a 'staple' but might be patented and then cannot be used outside Siemens. (Staples

change of carrier tape from monolayer to trilaminate material...we found out through experimentation that the these carrier tape material when combined with a similar cover tape type would react differently even at similar taping parameters. monolaye

This happens with either old tape, the cover tape doesn't stay sealed on the left side, or is the seal is too far to the right, the knife lifts the cover tape. There isn't much you can do in this case. Your choices are: switch the component into an A
