Intended Use
The intended use of the TM-401 Taping Machine is to produce taped reels of individually sealed
and consistently orientated components. Use of this equipment in any other way is not recom-
mended.
The TM-401 is designed to accommodate a full range of electronic devices. The Tube Feeder
accommodates all common tube based parts size 0805 or larger. It accepts the following tube
sizes:
width from 0.316” - 1.510” (8-38 mm), thickness from 0.15”- 0.465” (3.8-11.8 mm).
Suitable carrier and sealing tapes include any conductive or non-conductive tapes with feed-
holes that are pitched at 4 mm. Tapes must operate in a temperature range from 120-160° Cel-
sius with a pressure range from 40-60 psi and dwell time between 250-400 milliseconds. The
TM-401 can accommodate tape widths from 8mm to 72mm.
Tape advance speed is set on the machine’s controller and can be set at any speed from 1-100
percent of maximum speed. Feed rates can vary from 2,000 to 2,800 units per hour dependent
on component size.
Caution:
V-TEK® Incorporated takes no responsibility for the safety of the TM-401 if it is
used for any purpose other than the intended purpose as specified in this User’s
Guide.
Operating Environment
The TM-401 is designed to be operated in a temperature and humidity controlled, light, industrial
setting. It requires an ISO Class 9 clean room environment.
The machine should be installed on a flat, dry, stable surface in a well lit area (ambient lighting of
200 to 300 Lux (Lumens/m2).
The recommended climate is between 5 - 75% non-condensing humidity with a room tempera-
ture between 0 - 50 degrees Celsius.
Note
: Although all of the components used on the machine will withstand the temperature
range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius, such temperatures may decrease the life of some of the
components.
The intended electrical environment is Pollution Degree 2 and Over Voltage Category II.
