1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This chapter describes the precautions in working, and the jig and tapes to use.
TASP-E-OMA01-A00-00 Page 1-1

1.1 Overview
1. 概要
1.1 Overview
The tape splicing is a system that enables you to supply components to the modular placement
machine without stopping the machine; no more do you need to stop the machine to change
feeders whenever components run out.
To supply components, pull out only a tape reel before components run out, then splice tapes.
After splicing, put the tape reel back into the rack to complete the work.
The tape splicing improves the operating rate, quality, and workability of the placement machine
greatly.
For the component tape of 12 mm wide or over, you can also use the chip pocket overlapping
method instead of using the crimping jig. This method is easy and offers the greatest joint
strength; in some cases, however, it cannot be used. For details, see ‘2.3 Tape of 12–72
mm Wide (Chip Pocket Overlapping Method).’
Moreover, when you use the tape with the joint detection mechanism and the applicable feeder,
the placement machine will tell you the timing of supplying components.

can also use only the splicing tape for joining without using the crimping hardware.

1.3 Selecting the Splicing Methods
1.3 Selecting the Splicing Methods
There are three methods for splicing component tapes as follows. Select and combine the
splicing methods.

Overlapping the chip pockets

(Method for joining carrier tapes)
TASP-024E

∗ The following show the methods and the prioritized combinations.

Recom- Combination of Using the crimping hardware

menda- and Affixing the splicing tape
tion Crimp the crimping hardware to join carrier tapes.
Affix the dedicated adhesive tape (the splicing tape) to carrier tapes and top tapes.
This excels at accuracy and versatility.
12 mm-wide-or-over tape (Embossed only)
Recom- Combination of Using the crimping hardware

tion 1 Crimp the crimping hardware to join carrier tapes.
Affix the dedicated adhesive tape (the splicing tape) to carrier tapes and top tapes.
This excels at accuracy and versatility.
Recom- Combination of Overlapping the chip pockets

tion 2 Join carrier tapes by overlapping the chip pockets.
Priority Affix the dedicated adhesive tape (the splicing tape) to carrier tapes and top tapes.
This is easy and offers the greatest joint strength; in the following cases, however, it cannot
be used.
1. The overlapping method does not go well owing to the boss shapes of carrier tapes.
2. The total thickness of overlaid tapes exceeds 15 mm.
3. Since the chip pocket is deformed, an encapsulated chip does not fit in there.

1.4 Types of Splicing Tape (Joint Tape)
∗ There are two types of splicing tape (joint tape): one is the blue tape to be used when the joint
detection sensor is not installed, and another is the black tape to be used when the joint
detection sensor is installed. And each one has some types according to the width of the tapes
to be spliced.

∗ The splicing tape (the joint tape) for 24–72 mm wide, unlike the one for 12/16 mm wide, comes
with a supplementary tape to be affixed to the underside of component tapes or to be used for
reinforcing top tapes.
Supplementary tape

Before affixing to component tapes, tear off the supplementary tape.

(In the case of 24 mm tape) (In the case of 32–72 mm tape)

1.5 Empty Section at Joint
1.5 Empty Section at Joint
For the 8 mm tape, the joint where component tapes are spliced requires an empty
(no-chips-encapsulated) section. This prevents the following problems.
For the 12 mm-wide-or-over tape, however, it is not required.
• Ill pick-up posture owing to the pick-up position displacement at the joint
• Post-mounting θ displacement derived from the above
• Chips drop off or are turned upside down because too much top tape is peeled off at the joint.
• Worsened pick-up errors, or the rupture or ill transport of top tape derived from the above
The empty section length at the joint should be prepared as follows.
For the 8 mm-wide tape, the empty section equivalent to 6–9 components is required on new tape.
For 12 mm-wide-or-over tape, no empty section is needed.

Locking the crimping jig
TASP-008P
To fasten the crimping jig onto a workbench, use lock holes .

The mounting hole diameter is φ4.3 and the pitch is 37. Use M4 bolts to fasten it securely.
TASP-015P
State in which it is fastened to the splicing jig truck.
Unlocking the handle ratchet
TASP-007P
The handle has a ratchet to prevent insufficient crimping.

If you stop crimping, turn the ratchet inside the handle in the direction of the arrow.
If it is hard to turn the ratchet, close the handle a little, then turn it.

1.6 Crimping Jig
Crimping jig precautions

1. For the 8 mm-wide paper tape and embossed tape, use the same coupling method.
2. For the 32 mm-wide-or-over tape (both-side sending type), also crimp the other side.
∗ When the splicing jig truck is used, do as follows:
crimp one side, detach the tape from the crimping jig, rotate this 180°, and crimp the other side.
TASP-016P TASP-017P
3. Depending on the splicing condition, tape sending trouble or take-up trouble might occur, or the
pick-up rate might lower.
4. Take care not to pinch your fingers in the crimping jig.

pocket’s leader without the top tape) is
required.
TASP-043E

2.1.2 Crimping Procedure

∗ For information about crimping, also see ‘1.6 Crimping Jig.’
NOTICE
Overlapping, gap, or out-of-pitch, at the joint between the current tape in the feeder
and the new tape, should be avoided. Poor splicing condition may cause tape
sending trouble or take-up trouble, or may lower the pick-up rate.
TASP-099E TASP-101E TASP-102E

No out-of-pitch No strike strip No overlapping top tapes
1. Put the crimping hardware into the two

pins , with its claw-like projections
facing upward, located in the center of
the crimping jig.
TASP-001E
2. Put the current tape in the feeder into the

pin in a manner that its trailing edge
comes to the center of the crimping
hardware.
3. Close the clamp to clamp the tape.

the pin, aligning it with the trailing edge
of the current tape in the feeder.

TASP-003E
6. Clasp the handle of the crimping jig to

crimp.
∗ By crimping, bring the crimping hardware into

close contact with the tape. Insufficient
crimping causes disengagement or clogging
in the tape press of the machine.
∗ If the handle is clasped insufficiently, it will not

open. Try secure crimping again.

7. Open the clamp, and remove the tape

from the crimping jig while supporting
the joint.
TASP-007E

2.1.3 Taping
∗ There are two taping methods according to the presence or absence of the joint detection
mechanism; choose the applicable one from the following procedures.
NOTICE
The joint tape should be affixed equally to the current tape in the feeder and the new
tape. If it is affixed unequally, the joint may disengage.

with the chip pocket overlapping method and the dedicated splicing tape (joint tape).
This is easy and offers the greatest joint strength; in the following cases, however, it cannot be
used.
1. The overlapping method does not go well owing to the boss shapes of carrier tapes. (Fig. 1)
2. The total thickness of overlaid tapes exceeds 15 mm. (Fig. 2)
