AUTOMATIC TAPE SETTING APPARATUS

摘要

A component package tape is transported to a pitch feed mechanism section by a tape transport device and is held in a first tape holding section by a tape holding releasing device. Furthermore, a top tape adhered to a carrier tape that is transported to the pitch feed mechanism section is peeled from the carrier tape by a top tape peeling section while being clamped at a leading end section, is transferred to a top tape delivery mechanism section, and is held in a second tape holding section by the tape holding releasing device.

主权项

1. An automatic tape setting apparatus that sets a component package tape in a tape feeder, the automatic tape setting apparatus comprising:
a feeder holding stand that holds the tape feeder; a tape transport device that transports a component package tape from the tape reel to the pitch feed mechanism section of the tape feeder, the component package tape including a top tape adhered to an upper surface of a carrier tape including components spaced apart by predetermined pitches; a tape transfer device that clamps a leading end of the top tape adhered to the carrier tape that is transported to the pitch feed mechanism section and peels the top tape from the carrier tape in the top tape peeling section, and transfers the top tape to a top tape delivery mechanism section of the tape feeder; and a tape holding releasing device that releases a hold of a first tape holding section of the tape feeder when the component package tape is transported by the tape transport device and set to the pitch feed mechanism section, holds the component package tape in the first tape holding section after the component package tape is set, releases a hold of a second tape holding section of the tape feeder when the top tape is transferred by the tape transfer device and set to a top tape delivery mechanism section of the tape feeder, and holds the top tape in the second tape holding section after the top tape is set.
