PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 12 mm x 8 mm dimension referring to on this product?
Those dimensions refer to the width and thickness of the polycarbonate carrier tape. The 12 mm width accommodates standard component spacing, while the 8 mm thickness provides durability for automated handling equipment.
-
How much tape is included in each roll?
Each roll contains 500 meters of tape, which gives you plenty of material for extended production runs without frequent changeovers.
-
What does "Levelwind" mean on this product?
Levelwind is a winding mechanism that ensures the tape is wound evenly across the reel. This prevents bunching and edge damage, which helps maintain consistent performance throughout your application.
-
Can you explain what the D1 = 1.5 mm specification means?
D1 refers to the hole pitch diameter on the carrier tape, measuring 1.5 millimeters. This is the perforation size that engages with your equipment's drive pins for precise tape advancement.
-
Is this product suitable for high-speed automated assembly equipment?
Yes, absolutely. The 3M Polycarbonate Carrier 3000 is designed for automated component placement systems. The polycarbonate material, precise dimensions, and Levelwind construction all work together to ensure reliable, consistent feeding at high speeds.
