OpenPnP Parametric Tape Feeder

thingiverse

What is it for? --- Serves to hold SMT tapes with resistors, capacitors, etc. in place. Designed to use in a Pick and Place Machine, like [OpenPnP](http://openpnp.org/). Too low tech? Have a look to my fully automatic feeder: https://docs.mgrl.de/maschine:pickandplace:feeder:0816feeder Features --- * parametric design fully adaptable to your needs * width of one feeder is tapeWidth + 3mm, eg. for 8mm tapes the feeder will be 11mm * gang multiple feeder in one element * fully 3d printable, optimized design for best print results * keeps tape in position by slight force causing friction * no vitamins needed * prepared to be mounted to bed by 6mmx3mm magnets or M3 screw * try in Thingiverse Customizer last update: 30/12/2017 (added ability to create feeder especially suited for plastic tapes) Maybe updated files are available at [Github](https://github.com/mgrl/sFeeder).
