Designed to provide a fast, accurate and consistent method of semi-automated tape application to Roebel , Compensating and Bus Bars.

▼ The BCTVL-B is an electrically driven taping machine that combines a synchronized rotating taping head and two roller feed units to push / pull the work piece through the machine. The roller feed units clamping pressure is easily adjustable.
▼ Quality of tape application is assured by the powered drive rollers and traverse reversing gearbox arrangement guaranteeing consistent tape overlap. Both the tape overlap and tape tension settings are variable and easily adjusted by the operator if required. Tape can be applied in both directions.
▼ The rotating taping head is fitted with twin tape applicators, enabling the simultaneous application of 2 layers of tape. A wide variety of tapes can be used including mica, glass, Nomex® and Kapton®.

▼ The BCTVL –B effortlessly tapes at up to 8 times faster than traditional methods. Virtually no machine preparation or set up time is required.
▼ Head rotation speed and linear speed are fully adjustable to achieve the desired taping pitch / tape overlap. Connected mechanically, the roller units feed the material through the rotating tape pads at the required rate. The ratio of the feed is adjusted through a rotating thumb wheel on the control panel. The speed of the rotating applicator ring is controlled by a foot operated switch from 0 – 150 rpm.
