<p>A tape drive machine has: guide rollers (18, 20) with fixed lower flanges to guide the lower edge of the tape; air bearings (14, 16) with upper tape edge guides which are supported by torsionally highly flexible cantilevers to permit the guides to adapt to their position to run flat on the upper edge of the tape; air bearings with relatively few air holes joined by grooves; a lacing mechanism (82-98) with a part-circular arcuate path for a leader block pin (98); and a tape path which is mirror-image symmetrical about the central axis (108) of head (12).</p> |
