Theory of Operation
The OEM TM-50 routes carrier tape from a feed reel through an adjustable track for manual
placement of parts or electrical components. Once the operator has filled all of the carrier tape
pockets in the loading area with parts, a foot pedal is used to advance the tape to a sealer
assembly.
If the OEM TM-50 was purchased with the optional
Extended Software Package
, a sensor
detects jams in tape, empty pockets and low cover tape supply as the tape advances.
Once the carrier tape reaches the OEM TM-50 sealer assembly, a cover tape is applied. The part
is then sealed in the pocket with either a Heat Seal or Pressure Sensitive Application (PSA).
When the sealing process is complete, the finished tape is routed onto a take-up reel.
