Hi There. I use to suffer the same pain,specially when i had limited board quantities. You can use an antiestatic transparency attached to the board using Kapton Tape,than place the double sticky tape. This work perfect,kapton tape residues clean ve

Are these covers repacements for the tape guides? If so in retipping many thousands of cp6 nozzles we see that the window in the tape guide is often miscentered and the needle tip rubs on the same place every time it picks. I expect the miscentered g

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

We occasionally have this problem where the nozzles peck little holes in the component overlay tape causing it to break. It only happens on universal tape covers. We see it on our CP4 and CP6 machines. Has anyone else experienced this ?

Hi, I am looking to re-organize our component taping area. Is there any commercial carrier tape storage solutions or is it pretty much up to me to design and build something ? Thanks in advance.

Yes Davef, storage condition and long time remaining on shelf could effect pealing strength, but we experimented that by using Polystirene Carrier Tape also this problem was reduced almost to zero. Df, If I am not wrong when you talk about pr

i don't know of any "handy dandy" but something I use is tape width minus 4mm for the max component size that can be fit into tape widths of up to 32mm. 32mm and larger have holes on both sides which would then be tape width minus 7mm. I have never

We run Siemens SiPlace SMT equipment. One of our biggest problems is feeder tape splices jamming our feeders. We use Siemens recommended method of splicing our feeder tapes together. This has been causing upwards of 10% lost time on some of our build

We send parts out to be tape & reeled. We do not send all loose parts out to be tape & reeled. As you would expect, we base our decision on: * T&R service company lead time * Our production schedule * Cost benefit of T&R versus some other productio
