What is cover tape?
Cover tape refers to a ribbon band or strip used in the field of electronics packaging, which is used to pack and seal SMD electronic components carrier tape. This cover tape is usually a transparent plastic film, used to cover the IC integrated circuit, SMD inductance, SMD transformer, capacitor resistor, SMD connector, SMD hardware, SMD/SMT patch electronic components and other types of carrier tape packaging and used with the carrier tape. The cover belt is usually based on polyester or polypropylene film, and is usually based on polyester or polypropylene film and coated with different functional layers (anti-static layer, adhesive layer, etc.), which can be sealed on the surface of the carrier tapes under external force or heating to form a closed space and protect the electronic components in the carrier tapes.
