SMT Automatic Splicing Tape
FUNSMT automatic splicing tape is a metal-sense PET tape engineered for automatic splicing machines. An integrated metallic layer lets feeder sensors detect the splice point instantly, keeping robotic grippers synchronized. Each 12.5 × 32 mm piece bonds permanently to 8 mm carrier tape (4 mm pitch) with high-tack resin; 500 pieces per box, full anti-static protection.




Achieve flawless automation with Funsmt’s Metal-Sense Splicing Tapes. Specifically engineered for high-speed automatic splicing machines, these premium PET tapes feature integrated metal sensing technology and full anti-static protection, ensuring your pick-and-place lines run at peak efficiency with zero sensor errors.
Advanced Automation Features
-
Intelligent Metal Sensing: Designed with a specialized metallic layer that allows automatic splicing machines and feeder sensors to detect the splice point instantly. This ensures perfect synchronization and tracking throughout the assembly process.
-
Optimized for SMT Robots: While compatible with manual processes, this tape is the "gold standard" for Automatic Splicing Machines, providing the consistent tension and alignment required by robotic grippers.
-
Superior Patent-Grade Adhesion: Crafted from our proprietary high-tack adhesive, this tape provides an immediate, permanent bond to PET carrier tapes, preventing joint separation even under high-speed feeder vibration.
-
Full ESD Safety: The anti-static properties eliminate the risk of electrostatic discharge during the high-speed peeling and feeding process, safeguarding sensitive semiconductor components.

Proven ROI for Smart Factories
-
Boost Machine Output: Integrated splicing workflows can increase pick-and-place output by 5% to 30% by eliminating manual re-threading.
-
Reduce Downtime: Seamlessly transition between reels without stopping the machine, significantly lowering the "Cost per Placement."
-
Protect Your Feeders: The precision-engineered thin profile reduces mechanical friction within the feeder, prolonging the lifespan of your high-capital equipment.
Professional Operation Workflow
-
Precision Cut: Use a dedicated SMT cutting tool to ensure the ends of both carrier tapes are perfectly square.
-
Expose Adhesive: Peel away the transparent release liner to reveal the high-performance adhesive side.
-
Positioning: Align the two carrier tapes and place them onto the first strip of the splice tape. For automatic machines, ensure the tape is loaded according to the robot's sensor alignment.
-
Secure Bond: After applying to the carrier tapes, press firmly across multiple points to activate the pressure-sensitive adhesive and ensure a 100% secure joint.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the metal sensing work?
A thin metallic layer in the PET base triggers the feeder's metal-induction sensor as the joint passes, so the machine registers the splice point automatically — no manual indexing or re-teaching required.
Which machines is it designed for?
It is optimized for automatic splicing machines and robotic splicing stations. It can also be applied manually, but the metal-sense layer delivers its full value on sensor-equipped feeders.
Which carrier tape does it fit?
Exclusively 8 mm carrier tape with 4 mm pitch. Each piece measures 12.5 × 32 mm and is packed 500 pieces per box.
Is it ESD safe?
Yes — full anti-static protection is built in, eliminating static discharge risk during high-speed peeling and feeding.
What is the MOQ and lead time?
There is no rigid MOQ — we support trial orders as well as volume repeats. Standard sizes ship from our U.S. warehouse (San Jose, CA) in 2–3 business days; custom specifications are made to order.
