Use of embossed carrier tape

Carrier Tape refers to a strip product used in the field of electronic packaging, which has a specific thickness and is equidistant in its length direction with holes (also known as pockets) for placing electronic components and location holes for index positioning.Carrier tape is mainly used in the electronic component mounting industry, which is used in conjunction with cover tape to carry and store electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, transistors, and diodes in pockets on the carrier tape. The electronic components are protected from contamination and damage during transportation by sealing the carrier tape with the cover tape above it.  When the components are being mounted, the cover tape is removed, and the automatic mounting equipment uses the precise positioning of the carrier tape‘s indexing holes to extract the components from the pockets one by one and install them on the printed circuit board (PCB board).
