Applications
Double-sided, 3M and high-temperature tape on metal parts, protective film and metal edge wrapping.
Updated
Metal parts are usually taped rather than labeled: double-sided, 3M or high-temperature tape is laid in strips while the part is held by vacuum or a fixture. The floor-standing rotary-head and 2-axis tape applicators do this at ±1 mm and 500 mm/s; the dual-head model tapes flat faces on uneven parts that do not sit steadily and unloads them magnetically. Protective film up to 450 mm wide is laminated and cut automatically by the wide-format film applicator, and the metal edge wrapping machine is built to order for the edge-wrapping step.
For this industry we recommend 5 of the 56 models on this site. Each is listed below with the accuracy and speed printed in our catalog; the figures are ratings of the standard models and exclude product and label or tape tolerances.
Standard models from our catalog that handle the products and the label or tape jobs described above.
Brochure p. 7 ±1 mm The YIXING floor-standing rotary-head tape applicator holds the part on its table by vacuum or a fixture and rotates the tape head to lay multiple horizontal and vertical strips. It covers a 500 × 1000 mm taping stroke at ±1 mm accuracy and 500 mm/s, and applies double-sided, 3M, clear and high-temperature tape.
Brochure p. 8 ±1 mm The YIXING floor-standing 2-axis tape applicator splits the motion between two axes: the X axis drives the tape head and the Y axis moves the table carrying the part. It covers a 650 × 650 mm stroke at ±1 mm and 500 mm/s and suits parallel strips on sheets and foam boards.
Brochure p. 12 ±1 mm The YIXING dual-head tape applicator is a custom build for taping flat faces on uneven parts that do not sit steadily. Parts are loaded into fixtures by hand, four strips go on at once, and a magnetic pick-up on a motion module unloads them; the two heads work in turn. Approx. 2000 × 1600 × 1500 mm, 260 kg.
Custom builds available Wide-format applicator that laminates protective film or tape up to 450 mm wide onto flat parts held on a vacuum platform, then cuts it automatically.
Brochure p. 49 The YIXING metal edge wrapping machine is a custom machine for the edge-wrapping step of metal parts. The brochure photo shows a stainless-steel cabinet with a touchscreen and emergency stop, plus a vertical feeding mechanism and several pneumatic actuators on the table top. No standard specs are listed.

The standard model covers 500 × 1000 mm and applies strips from 30 mm long. Requirements beyond the standard model can be custom-built.
The X axis moves the tape head and the Y axis moves the machine table; the part travels with the table while the two axes work together.
Parts that are uneven and do not sit steadily but need tape on a flat face, using double-sided, 3M, clear or high-temperature tape.
