How to calculate the number of tape packages and meters this blog post contains pictures of SMD tape carrier

Calculation method of number and meter of tape packaging

2. Calculation formula for number of pieces and meters

(1) Number of packages per roll = (winding area ÷ (K0 + T) ÷ P) * 0.9
(2) Number of meters wound per roll = (number of pieces packed per roll * P) ÷ 1000 + 1
(3) Winding area = π R2 – π R2
(4) The commonly used disc has an outer diameter of 13 “and an inner diameter of 100, so the winding area is 77677
(5) Number of packages per roll = (77677 ÷ (K0 + T) ÷ P) * 0.9

3. Determination of relevant dimensions of carrier belt

(1) The p value is a multiple of 4 and is 2mm larger than the maximum size of parts in the same direction.
(2) K0 is the maximum dimension of parts in the same direction plus 0.30mm.
(3) T is the thickness of the carrier belt, usually 0.40mm or 0.50mm. The larger the value of T, the thicker the load band.
