Affixing the Code Tape
Figure 3.2
Dimensions of the Data Matrix 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:
Position the code tape so that the

label and the position markings
are to the right of the Data Matrix code in the X direction. The position values then increase
along the X direction.
