PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 3M™ Polycarbonate Carrier 3000 primarily used for?
The 3M™ Polycarbonate Carrier 3000 is a specialized carrier tape designed for component packaging and automated assembly applications. It securely holds and protects small electronic components during storage, handling, and machine placement.
-
What does the 1.0 mm pocket hole specification mean?
The 1.0 mm pocket hole dimension refers to the depth of the pockets molded into the tape. This specification ensures that components of the correct size will fit securely and are properly positioned for automated pick-and-place equipment.
-
How much tape comes in each roll, and how many rolls are in a case?
Each roll contains 1000 meters of tape, and there are 4 rolls per case, giving you 4000 meters of tape total per case purchase.
-
What makes polycarbonate material a good choice for carrier tape?
Polycarbonate is an excellent material because it offers superior durability, clarity for component visibility, resistance to static electricity, and dimensional stability. These properties help protect components during automated assembly processes.
-
What is the Levelwind feature, and why is it important?
Levelwind is a 3M technology that ensures the tape winds smoothly and evenly on the roll without bunching or overlapping. This prevents damage to components, improves feeding reliability in assembly equipment, and makes handling safer and more efficient.
The 3M™ Polycarbonate Carrier 3000 (US018101) represents a breakthrough in high-performance carrier technology, designed for demanding industrial and commercial applications that require exceptional precision and reliability. This advanced polycarbonate carrier system delivers superior dimensional stability and consistent performance across extended production runs, making it an ideal choice for manufacturers who cannot compromise on quality or efficiency.
Built with innovative levelwind technology and precision pocket hole engineering, this carrier tape features an 8 mm x 4 mm configuration with a specialized 1.0 mm pocket hole design. These specifications ensure optimal component placement accuracy and smooth feeding through automated assembly equipment. The levelwind mechanism provides superior tape tension control, reducing tape skew and minimizing component shifting during high-speed operations.
Key features and benefits include:
- 1000-meter roll length maximizes production uptime and reduces changeover frequency
- Polycarbonate construction offers excellent chemical resistance and dimensional consistency
- Precision pocket hole design accommodates various component sizes with accuracy
- Levelwind technology ensures uniform tape tracking and reduced waste
- Convenient 4-roll case packaging for easy storage and inventory management
