Automatic Empty Carrier Detection and Cutting: A Key Step in Maintaining SMT Splicing Continuity
Sep 03 , 2025
On the SMT production line, the continuity of the carrier tape determines the stability of the line operation. However, the common occurrence of "empty carriers" in actual production often becomes a hidden risk affecting yield. If empty carriers proceed untreated into the pick-and-place machine, it can lead to failed nozzle pickups causing missed pla...

Multi-width compatibility of splicing tapes simplifies SMT changeover
Sep 05 , 2025
In SMT production, different carrier tape widths correspond to components of different package sizes. Common specifications include 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 24mm (as well as wider ones such as 32mm and 44mm). The 8mm width is mostly used for small passive components like resistors and capacitors, and is also common for small ICs; 12mm and 16mm can accommodat...
