At Supertape, application engineering revolves around delivering tailor-made tape solutions that perfectly match your specific applications and process.
The first step in the process is choosing the right adhesive in combination with the substrate the tape needs to adhere to. Factors taken into account include:
The next step is to determine the carrier. The requirements from the application influence this choice. Important considerations are:
Then the correct amount of adhesive is determined and it is decided whether the tape should be single- or double-sided.
Finally, we analyze how the tape is applied in practice. This can be done manually or by machine. Various factors come into play here. In machine applications, speed, cutting (blade choice), pressure force, and winding tension are crucial. With our expertise in application engineering, Supertape guarantees an optimal tape solution for every application.
