In modern SMT production, Splice Tapes & Tools have become essential components for ensuring uninterrupted feeder operation, reducing machine downtime, and improving overall line efficiency. Whether you are running high-volume production or small-batch assembly, choosing the right splice solution directly impacts your production stability and cost control.
What Are SMT Splice Tapes & Tools?
SMT Splice Tapes are adhesive tapes designed to connect the end of one component reel to the beginning of another. When used correctly, they allow operators to replace empty reels without stopping the pick-and-place machine, enabling continuous production.
Complementary splice tools, such as splice clips, splice tools, and splice scissors, help ensure accurate alignment and secure bonding to maintain proper feeding.
Key Benefits of Using Splice Tapes
1. Zero Downtime Reel Changeover
Splice tapes allow reel replacement on the fly, helping factories avoid machine stoppages and maintain constant throughput.
2. Improved Productivity
By reducing interruptions, splicing significantly increases overall production efficiency—especially valuable in large-scale SMT operations.
3. Cost Savings
Every minute of machine downtime costs money. Continuous component feeding avoids unnecessary losses and keeps production lines running smoothly.
4. Compatibility With All Major SMT Brands
High-quality splice tapes work seamlessly with:
-
Panasonic
-
Yamaha
-
JUKI
-
Hanwha/Samsung
-
Fuji
-
ASM/Siemens
and more.
