Its vertical taping line with vertical
sintering oven is suitable for many
different types of tapes and fibres,
such as PTFE, polyimide, mica,
polyester, fleece, laminated tapes,
metal tapes and paper. The high speed
and the precision is enabled by a
closed loop tape tension control and a
very precise speed synchronisation
between the capstan (or caterpillar)
and the taping heads.
Depending on the application, the line
may be equipped with a cooling unit
for the taping area, devices for quality
control or an inline sintering oven.
