Affixing the Code Tape
The code tape is made of silicone-free polyester film. A position marker appears every 100 mm
along the lower edge of the code tape (see "Code Tape Dimensions"). These position markers
are used to affix the code tape in the correct position.
The back of the code tape is covered with a modified acrylate-based adhesive designed for
permanent adhesion. Affix the self-adhesive code tape along the desired traverse distance. To
do so, proceed as follows:
Affixing the Code Tape
1. Clean the surface of any greasy or oily deposits and dust.
2. Ensure that the surface is dry, clean, and stable.
3. Pull away a few centimeters of the protective film at the beginning of the code tape. Place
the code tape at the precise point of the required starting position on the surface, and press
to attach.
4. Then affix the code tape along the desired traverse distance. Remove the protective film
gradually so that the code tape does not accidentally adhere to the surface in the incorrect
position. When affixing, ensure that the code tape does not crease or trap air bubbles.
The adhesive on the code tape hardens after 72 hours.
Note!
Thermal Expansion of the Code Tape
The heat expansion coefficient of the adhered code tape corresponds to the heat expansion
coefficient of the underside.
