Carrier
tapes are essential carrying and packaging materials for the surface
automatic mounting of electronic parts. Excellent counter measures for
static electricity and accuracy requirements.
Materials
The most common materials used for making carrier tapes are
polystyrene, polycarbonate, styrenic alloy and amorphous-polyethylene
terephalate (APET). The materials used are specially formulated to
provide consistent sealing strength and stable surface resistivity.
Polycarbonate is an amorphous material with excellent impact strength.
Its mechanical properties allow it to be molded to very tight
tolerances. It is available in non-conductive, static-dissipative, and
conductive formats. Polystyrene is an inexpensive and hard plastic. It
offers exceptional strength and stability over time and temperature
variations. Polystyrene carrier tape is commonly combined with carbon
and available in a static-dissipative format.
