Special TapeFormers

Do you have an application that will require a special design of TapeFormer?

Do you have a TapeFormer that differs from our standard design and would like to keep this design?

We are able to manufacture TapeFormers of all kinds, specific to your individual requirements.

We can develop a special TapeFormer or copy your existing TapeFormer.

Due to the nature of special TapeFormers we cannot guarantee perfect success.

Any alterations or remanufacture of these TapeFormers will be charged for on a case by case basis.

A TapeFormer exit is a fixed dimension and it is designed to be used with the cable diameter, tape width and tape thickness it has been manufactured for.

A jam will occur if a TapeFormer is used with a larger cable diameter, tape width and tape thickness than it was manufactured for, so this is not possible.

In some cases, it is possible to use a TapeFormer with a smaller cable diameter, tape width and tape thickness when used with a tape closing device e.g. a die. We cannot give guidance on how much smaller the cable and tape can be, tests need to be made to decide what is acceptable.

The pictures below give an idea of what happens when a TapeFormer is being used with the correct size cable and tape, and a smaller cable and tape. We cannot guarantee the performance of a TapeFormer that is being used with a smaller cable and tape that it was manufactured for.
