Electrode forming apparatus for electric parts

摘要

An electrode forming apparatus for electric parts has a tape and a driving mechanism. The tape has holding holes for holding board-shaped electric parts therein at regular intervals and feeding holes for feeding the tape at regular intervals. The driving mechanism can feed the tape by engaging with the feeding holes of the tape. A pasting unit applies electric conductive paste to the electric parts held by the holding holes of the tape fed by the driving mechanism, in order to form a electrode. Each of the holding holes has a pair of abutting edges for abutting on both opposite surfaces of the board-shaped electric parts and at least one cutout portion formed from the butting edges. Due to the above constitution, the board-shaped electric parts can be held and conveyed by the abutting edges of the holding hole.
