摘要

Provided in the present invention is an apparatus for manufacturing a carrier tape including a comb-type punch whose teeth located on the front end of a relatively movement direction against the transferring direction of a base material are hardly damaged. The apparatus for manufacturing a carrier tape according to the present invention includes an upper frame with a punch (21) for forming a plurality of concave portions for storing electronic parts, on the surface of the base material; and a lower frame for arranging the base material and pressurizing and forming the base material by being engaged with the upper frame. The punch (21) has a plurality of serially arranged teeth (26), and teeth (26a) located on the front end of the direction of an arrow A have larger cross sections of base portions than those of other teeth (26).
