A method for fabricating semiconductor components, such as BGA packages, chip scale packages, and multi chip modules, includes the steps of cutting decals from ribbons of adhesive tape, and then attaching a semiconductor die to a substrate using the decals. A system for performing the method includes a tape cutting apparatus configured to cut the decals from the tape without wasted tape, and then to apply the cut decals to the substrate. A first finished dimension (e.g., width) of the decals is determined by a width of the tape, and a second finished dimension (e.g., length) of the decals is determined by indexing the tape through a selected distance. The tape cutting apparatus includes cutters configured to move through guide openings to cut and apply the decals to the substrate. The guide openings align the tape to the cutters, and also align the cut decals to the substrate. The system also includes a substrate handling apparatus configured to index and position the substrate relative to the guide openings.
