Intended Use
The intended use of the TM-500 Taping Machine is to produce taped reels of individually sealed
and consistently orientated components. Use of this equipment in any other way is not recom-
mended.
The TM-500 is designed to accommodate a full range of electronic devices. Input options vary
with the type of input module installed.
• The Tray Input Module accommodates any standard Jedec Tray sizes.
• The Tube Input Modules accommodate all common tube based parts. It accepts the fol-
lowing tube sizes: width from 6 - 38 mm, lengths from 175 - 581 mm and heights from 2 -
2 mm.
• The Bowl Input Module accommodates 0805 and 1206 size parts.
Suitable carrier and sealing tapes include any conductive or non-conductive tapes with feed-
holes that are pitched at 4 mm. Tapes must operate in a temperature range from 120-160° Cel-
sius with a pressure range from 40-60 psi and dwell time between 250-400 milliseconds. The
TM-500 can accommodate tape widths from 8mm to 56mm.
Tape advance speed is set on the machine’s controller and can be set at any speed from 1-100
percent of maximum speed. Feed rates can vary from 2,000 to 4,500 units per hour dependent
on component size and the type of input module installed.
Multiple 2D and 3D Vision Systems are available for device inspection. Camera resolution varies
depending on which module is selected. 3D Camera Resolution ranges from 1288 x 964 x 4 to
2330 x 1750 x 2. 3D Vision Systems are able to detect BGA and Leaded Device errors to within
+/- 20 microns.
Caution:
V-TEK® Incorporated takes no responsibility for the safety of the TM-500 if it is
used for any purpose other than the intended purpose as specified in this User’s
Guide.
