OpenPnP Parametric Tape Feeder

thingiverse

What's it used for? It holds SMT tapes with resistors, capacitors and more in place. Intended for use in a Pick and Place Machine like OpenPnP. Not low-tech enough? Check out my fully automatic feeder here: https://docs.mgrl.de/maschine:pickandplace:feeder:0816feeder Features --- * Designed to be adaptable to your needs through parametric design * The width of one feeder is the tape width plus three millimeters, for example eight millimeter tapes require an eleven millimeter feeder * Enables gang multiple feeders in a single element * Fully printable in three dimensions with optimized design for best printing results * Keeps tape in position using gentle force that causes friction * No additional parts required * Equipped to be mounted on the bed by six millimeter by three millimeter magnets or an M3 screw * Try it out in Thingiverse Customizer Last updated: December 30, 2017 (added ability to create feeder specifically suited for plastic tapes) Maybe updated files are available at Github: https://github.com/mgrl/sFeeder.
