Twin tapes
Designation: BCBG40…TWIN… or BCBG30…TWIN…
Twin tapes are jointly manufactured barcode tapes with the same value range.
NOTICE
A twin tape always consists of two barcode tapes!
Ä When ordering a twin tape, two barcode tapes are always included with an order.
Twin tapes are used if positioning with two barcode tapes is necessary, e.g., with crane systems or eleva-
tors.
Because they are manufactured jointly, both tapes have the same length tolerance. As a result, differences
in length and code position are minimal. By having the same code position on both tapes, improved syn-
chronization can be achieved during positioning compared to barcode tapes that are manufactured sepa-
rately.

Twin tapes are always delivered in pairs on two rolls.
If twin tapes are replaced, both tapes are to be replaced.
An entry wizard for twin tapes with custom tape start value, tape end value, custom length and
height is available on the Leuze website under devices BPS300 - Accessories tab. The entry
wizard provides support when entering the individual pieces of tape data and creates a query or
order form with the correct part number and type designation.
