摘要 |
The invention relates to a process and to apparatus for the defined dispensing and application to a substrate surface of sections of a tape (2), particularly of a pressure-sensitive or thermally activatable adhesive tape, to a substrate surface. To this end, the tape is continuously adhesively affixed to the surface. Starting at an initial placement position; before the leading edge (18) in the direction of application (16) of the tape section is secured, it is severed partly, leaving at least one web of material (13), at a predetermined distance from the trailing edge (15) thereof by a cutting mechanism (9). After the subsequent adhesive placement of the entire tape section on said surface, the tape (2) is separated at said at least one web of material (13) by utilizing a braking effect as the tape or the tape dispensing and applying apparatus continues to move relative to the surface. |
