Taper
, then move to the HMI to adjust settings. (
Step 7
)
Load Carrier Tape
1.
The outer track slides along two detent shafts that are marked with preset
positions for various tape widths. Detent stops are designed to accommodate the
following tape widths: 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 24mm, 32mm, 44mm, 56mm, and
72mm. The track can be adjusted by sliding the outer track outward until it reaches
the correct position.
Check that the taper is set at the correct width for the carrier tape. If not, pull the
front track out until it clicks into the correct position.
2.
Once the track is adjusted, use a strip of the carrier tape as a test to determine if
the setting is correct. The carrier tape should slide through freely, but without
excess play back and forth.
