2.2.4 Inserting the Tape Reel Holder
When using 3x8 mm S feeders, the tapes to be processed are so close together that it is better not to
place the corresponding tape reels next to one another but instead in a staggered or offset arrangement.
The middle tape reel for each feeder is positioned slightly higher than the others, on a tape reel holder.
Each of these tape reel holders can accommodate one tape reel on the left and one on the right i.e. a
maximum of two tape reels. A deflection pulley keeps the tapes tensioned.
Example
You want to use four 3x8 mm S feeders next to one another.
In this case you will need 2 tape reel holders with deflection pulley.
▪ Tape reel holder A accommodates the middle tape from feeder 1 on its left and the middle tape from
feeder 2 on its right.
▪ Tape reel holder B accommodates the middle tape from feeder 3 on its left and the middle tape from
feeder 4 on its right.
2.2.4.1 Preparing the Middle Tape Reels
►(1) Take the middle tape reel of each feeder and place it higher up.
►(2) Insert the tape reel holder in each second space e.g. as shown on the photo at feeders 2 and 4
(A and B).
►(3) Make sure that the tape reel holder engages correctly into the rail.
►Now place the middle tape reels onto the sides of the tape reel holders.
Example:
Place the middle tape of feeder 1 onto the left of tape reel holder A and the middle tape of feeder 2
onto the right side of the same holder.
Place the middle tape of feeder 3 onto the left of tape reel holder B and the middle tape of feeder 4
onto the right side of this holder.

2.2.4.2 Inserting the Deflection Pulleys
The deflection pulleys keep the tapes tensioned in the tape reel holders.
►(1) Position the deflection pulley above the tape reel holder.
►(2) Insert the deflection pulley into the recess in the tape reel holder.
►(3) Take the deflection pulley by the handle and turn it in the direction of the arrow.
►(4) The diagram shows an example of an optimum setup.

2.3.1 Converting the Tape Width
To convert the feeder from a width of 12 mm to 16 mm (or vice versa), turn the filler piece at the pickup
window to the respective position.
To process 12 mm tapes you need to have a tape clip as guidance. You do not need this tape clip to
process 16 mm tapes. In this case it can be stored at the park position.
►Loosen the two screws fastening the filler piece to the feeder.
►Turn the filler piece by 180 degrees.
►Fix the filler piece into place with the two screws.
►Loosen the screw on the tape clip.
► Fasten the tape clip in the required position with the same screw.
Legend:
A Structure for 12 mm tapes 1 Filler piece
B Structure for 16 mm tapes 2 Tape clip
NOTICE
The filler piece must always be fitted at both tape setups, as the protruding "nose" of the clip
keeps the removal edge pressed down.
