Check the tension of the cover tape by observing if there
is excess slack as the cover tape is pulled through the
sealer. If so, the tension is too little. If there is no slack,
check that the tension is not too tight by pulling the tape by
hand. If the tape does not unwind easily, it is too tight. In
either case, poor seal consistency can be a problem.
Adjust the cover tape tension by turning the
Tension Adjust-
ment Knob
on the back of the
Cover Tape Arm
clockwise
(in) to increase tension. The goal is to tighten the cover tape
so there is not excess freedom in the tape when it is
advanced.
Note:
Check to ensure that the outside reel cover is
not pressed too tightly against the cover tape reel.
This may interfere with the reel, creating tension prob-
lems.
Mount a Take-up Reel
Mount an empty take-up reel on the take-up reel spindle.
The width of the reel must match the width of the carrier
tape and its diameter should be large enough to accom-
modate the number of components in the taping job.
Mechanical Hazard!
Avoid placing fingers between the carrier
tape and the Take-up Reel when the OEM TM-50 is in operation. Pinching or
entrapment may occur if safety precautions are not observed.
